First trip

Sunday June 12, 2016

We took our first trip out on the Kayaks.  We started out at Richwood Lake and decided it was way too small and crowded with people fishing.  So, we drove over to the northern end of O'Shaughnessy Reservoir and put in at the boat ramp in Bellpoint (off SR 257).  We paddled north on the Scioto River for about 45-60 minutes or so, then back down to Bellpoint.

I had been concerned that paddling upstream might be too difficult, but the water was slow and paddling was pretty easy.  I had a couple of hot spots on my hands and decided I need paddle grips. My better half started with his seat in the "low" position and got his hiney wet.  He stopped and moved his seat into the "upper" position and was much better.  I just kept mine in the "upper" position.
