Ultimate Kayak Fishing

Kayak Fishing Launch Spots

Kayak Fishing Launches added 5/12/09. I am adding the launches I know and use. Most of the launches are publicly known already and unless noted they have easy on off and parking. Contact Me if you have a launch that you would like to see here. I need name, description, lat and lon or a street address with zip code. Let me know if there are any restrictions or fee's for parking or launching.

Make sure you know parking regulations and bring out what you bring in. Don't leave empty bait wrappers or paper boxes behind.  Some of the launch areas listed had their description updated. They no longer show cartop launch. Beaches are not kayak launch areas when lifeguard are on duty. If the beach is empty you can ask to launch as a courtesy. I have had lifeguards deny launching from the beach and one time they tried to play coast gueard in an area that was outside of their "beach". Keep cool, we can come back at dusk or launch in the fall so no need to be upset. Most areas will have more than one launch spot within 5 or 10 minute drive.
