L.A. there are a lot of pylons to fish that range from 2 ft to 18 ft deep that stick out of the water and are easy to spot. it would be easy for someone unfamilair with the area to catch a few. i would say the best place to put in is at regional park but there are several other places to put in. also expect to catch several green carp because there is a healthy supply of them. the game wardens are also out alot so make sure you are up to date on everything, have your lifejackets etc, and most importantly don't keep a green carp under 15" because i have seen many people pay a fine for that. if you decide to go i would take a left at the regional ramp and go down past the docks and fish those pylons. good luck
