Default Intro and request for kelp bed help

Hello everyone,

My name is Joe. I'm 53 years old and live in the San Diego area.
I'm rather new to kayak fishing. I've been fishing San Diego bay from my Hobie Outback and would like to start fishing the kelp beds. Currently I have Curado and Citica 100 reels on Clarus rods. I would imagine these setups are to light for the kelp beds. What rod and reel setups (including line) would you recommend for fishing the kelp beds? I'm especially interested in targeting bass, yellowtails and white seabass.

As I said I've never fished the kelp beds before. Is there anyone out there who wouldn't mind taking a newbie under their wings and showing them how it's done? If not can anyone recommend a good guide who could teach me the ropes?

Thanks for any and all help!

Joe

How do you like to fish for bass, tails, ect? For la jolla I like to set up with a #20 topshot with braid for plastics, 30lb to troll, and 40lb for the iron. For reels I like my calcutta, saltist 30, and a sealine 40..
