I also work downtown (21st and L) and if I leave here at around 445 I can be standing on the water with rod in hand at chain bridge by about 530. With sunset being around 730 that gives enough time to get some casts in. Another TPFR'r who also works downtown has joined me in the past. He and I both bike and have toyed with the idea of biking to work with our gear and than heading down to gravelly point via the mt. vernon trail after work. I've done it before and that takes about 15-20 minutes via bike, not sure if its any faster by car. Anyway we're talking about possibly doing a post work trip next week, I'm traveling Monday and Friday so mid week is best for me, let me know if you're interested.

That's awesome about the redfish migration. I go down to Louisiana--
once a year to fish them out of the Gulf and have attached pics from
the last two years. Imagine if they get that big here.
So I recently moved here, joined the forum on Monday and attended the
beer drinking event late. I went out to Lock 8 on Saturday, flyfished
for the first time and caught a sunfish while wading. I want to sneak
out after work tonite and want to know where I should go. I work
downtown, get out after 5, and want to maximize my time before the sun
sets. Since I realize traffic here makes LA seem calm, does anyone
have any close suggestions? Maybe Chain Bridge? Fletchers?? Any
suggestions would help. Thanks.
