Kayaking and SUP on Whitehall

Kayaking and fishing and SUP outings. Continued to pick up plastic. Saw a big turtle on one kayak outing. The air temps are lower but the water is still warm. Still no snakehead bites. Others reported catching them, so I'll continue to try. I've seen evidence of them, just no bites.

Still working on SUP paddling and balance, which continues to improve. I've only fallen once this summer.

Lux to Lankford Bay Marina, BCYC crab feast

Took Lux to the Back Creek Yacht Club annual Crab Feast in Lankford Bay Marina, a very nice facility up the Chester River. We had to motor there but were able to mostly sail back to Whitehall in a southerly flow.

SUP and Kayaking

Balance on the SUP is improving and my distance covered is increasing.

Still trying to catch Snakeheads without success in Whitehall.

Went on a kayak fishing charter with Damien Cook (lowlandoutfitters.com) for snakehead with no success. The water is still very warm.

Help friends move their Benetau 50

Helped friends move their Benetau 50 from St. Michaels to Selby Bay YC. We were just able to sail across the bay close-hauled in northerly winds. It was a nice outing.

Kayaking and SUP on Whitehall

The water is too warm for much fishing. Just kayaking and practice SUP paddling/balancing. Saw a muskrat on one outing. Surprisingly few jellyfish, making it more conducive to SUP outings.
