Kayak fish Santa Cruz. Launched from the wharf and paddled to kelp beds at the end of steamer lane, which is a famous surf break. Caught a kelp rockfish, black and yellow rockfish, and kelp greenling. The greenling was a particularly red male specimen. Saw several otters. Got up close to some big sea lions at the launch. A short and fun session. #catchking
