I'm liking Ecola state park from the aerial shot. It looks like that grouping of rocks right out front would do a lot to protect from waves. Plus there must be some nice pinnacles right out there w/ rockies all over it. Are there some kelp beds out there? Also the drive looks pretty central for all the NW anglers.

Ecola is a good surfing beach.  You've gotta watch your @$$ at high tide though cause the reform unloads on the inside sandbar.  I prefer to launch from the extreme north end of Cannon beach and paddle over. 
No real kelp beds but lots of rock features.

My first post!  Been fishing from a kayak for about 15 years.  Trout, salmon, steelhead and rockfish.

I live at Beverly Beach just north of Newport, fish here, Seal Rock and out of Depoe Bay mostly.  There's lots of camping here though frequently we get blown out - like this morning.  I found this video which just happens to be in my back yard.

I'm very interested in a tournament should one come about.

Yea, I used to post on iFish alot (same name).  These days I'm spending too much time on fisheries politics for the NW Steelheaders.

Sunset beach would be a great spot for a tournament! where ever it is I'll be there. I don't care about the tournament part of it. I just think it would be cool to fish and hang out with people who share the same interests.
PADDLE TO THE PEOPLE!
