What's the furthest you've paddled?

[GregAndrew]

Longest I have paddled from launch to first drop would be from San Onofre to the Box Canyon Clam beds. I believe it was 4.7 miles. I have fished much further than that from launches, but fished my way out in those cases. Longest distance paddled back at the end of the day was a tie at about 6 miles (as the Crow flies) San Onofre (chasing mythical Tuna), and Punta Final back to Campo Beluga in Gonzaga Bay.

NW corner, Torrey, then full tour of LJ again is something like 20 miles......that was before the closure..

6 miles out at La Jolla is the farthest from shore. Unlike most I think trolling is fun and don't mind the ride on my PA. Hopefully I will get time to made it to the Nine mile bank this summer

X factor. Did it a few times, Dawn to dusk.

Average trip is about 17 miles....the most was 24........and I felt that one for at least a few days. If you are covering ground and on the hunt.....15+ miles add up very quick. All done in the PA. I know of someone on this board who will blow this number away....most likely a few times a week.

Longest day was about 14 miles total, tried to find a wreck off the coast on North Carolina, never found the wreck, but we did manage to catch some big king mackerel while trolling! My shoulders hurt for a week.

This summer I am planning a SUP trip from LJ Shores to Mission Bay. Will probably be about 11 miles, eventually I'll build up to the trip my friends have done from Solana Beach to Mission Bay that's about 24 miles.

I don't have any sort of GPS to give exact distances but I've made some long paddles from Oceanside harbor north to the LCAC base and on to the clam beds. Some times conditions trump distance. The outer banks of north Carolina are a windy place. I doubt many of you know the waters of Roanoke sound. But I had my wife drop me off about 1/2 way up east side of Roanoke island and with the wind at my back set out to paddle south to my house. Maybe 10 minutes in to the paddle the wind did a 180, increased in speed, and the temp dropped 20 degrees. Didn't feel in danger cause I could have gone in to the marsh and beached on a mud bank but it was getting dark so I fought the wind on home. Don't know the distance but with out a doubt the toughest coldest paddle I have ever made. Mike

are you still a young buck ? 8 -12 seems like a lot of miles . but hell , put Josh on any of these yaks and it does not seem to make a difference . he just does not slow down , regardless of conditions . may it is just me, with a tired old burnt up body ?
