SD bay to Mission bay anyone?
Because of our schedules he and I can only sync our schedules for this Friday after this one, on the ............Friday the 13th........ ![]() ![]() ![]() I am starting the ball rolling and David (Ddwineguy) will ping in as well. We are taking a preliminary head count and also asking for some info from some of the other experienced members here for their input as well. One thing that will determine direction ( sd to mb or vice versa) will be current direction coupled with swell size and direction. A preliminary google map estimate puts it at about 13 &1/2 miles. Launch and landing options would be Shelter Island in SD Bay, and the public launch next to Dana Landing in Mission Bay. Easy on both ends! bay to bay map.jpg Thanks again to easyday for starting this and we hope you and your co-conspirators can join! Looks like this could be epic with a possible side trip out to the wrecks off of Mission beach as well as the kelp off the Ocean beach pier to make it even better! ![]() ![]() Any and all are more than welcome to join or chime in with advice and questions! ![]() ![]() ![]() Let us know what you think? ![]() |

Save yourself a half mile or so by launching/landing at the park on the North jetty. Current is going to be hard to determine. Tides could play a role in the channels too.

I have done this trip a few times. It is a great adventure with awesome fishing along the way and a lot of isolation. Typically I launch at mariners cove and end at Kellogg's to save some paddling.
I prefer to go from mission to sd bay as the current typically goes that way. Make sure you head out and in with the tides! Good luck, have fun and post some pics. Last edited by dmrides; 09-05-2013 at 07:35 AM. Reason: Consistency |

2 cents...
go from mission bay to SD bay - go with the current and wind - leave MB on out going tide - incoming tide to SD bay

I will be working 7 days a week until the end of September. Once September ends I will basically have 2 weeks of nothing to do so I will most certainly be down for any long range trip anyone throws together, and I will be planning more long range trips. I hope this works out for you guys.

So this trip kind of got put on the back burner thanks to a nasty attack of diverticulitis I have been suffering through. Doctors orders to take it easy for a bit. Who's in for two weeks from this Friday? I am feeling well enough to chase butts at SI bright and early if anyone wants to join.
