if anything the water seemed up a bit from monday
i do use the windtracker and hourly forcasts at weather.com and theyre pretty similar and accurate
bout 8mph and the seafoam pooper scooper maxes out upwind momentum potentials
at least with the current engine room configuration
used the 3 piece paddle it came with
i members why i blow monies on carbon fibered skis and paddles and sticks
thought about tossing from shore
threw in cause its hard to know your limits without testing them
in the game of inches a dozen high and long and in the milkweed
aint gonna git it done
and milk weed spew aint easy to git off the fly
and my antidotal experience is the next fish didnt care nor do i ever bother with hand scent transfer precautions much poopfishin although i have heard theyre sense of smell is keen
winds cranked up and it was evident we'd be traveling upstream and humping shuttles on foot
probably shouda ran the skeg
got blown sideways into a shallow underwater skag and dumped off the sup
thankfully in only a couple feet of water and no gear got lost or soaked
beached er where i could and stuck a few
ended up with a kitty gittin fly
made a few casts but no such luck
pulled into the whistler canal and hoffed back
lot of tails around the outlet
winds died a bit so i headed up
stuck a few more
and a fun skinny water ender
You do some fine work with the SUP. Looks like it's plenty stable for your brand of fishing...except when you run aground in the breeze. Don't expect to see a 300 hp motor on it anytime soon.
