On September 11, 2023, I drove to Long Point to launch on the White Oak River because a recon trip the day before revealed that the tides appeared to be getting lower on the river than on my local creek. I have a theory about my local creek. I’ll have to take a paddle trip to confirm it, someday.<\/p>\n\n\n

I launched from Long Point around 14:40 (2:40pm) and took the shortcut across the swamp grass to get to Hunters Creek faster. I arrived at the creek about an hour later. I’m still not sure my shortcut is really faster than paddling the extra 2 miles on the river, but it’s physically demanding, which I guess I enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n

I wasted some time after arriving at the creek, slogging through some mud that I had probably already explored, but I wasn’t sure if I had gone through there at low tide, so I took a detour. I didn’t actually do a lot in the mud. I wanted to sink in the silky mud on the shore of the creek. I set up my camera, did a really fun sink and realized, after I extracted myself, that I hadn’t started the camera. So, I washed off and did the entire thing again. By that time, the tide was coming back in. I had arrived kind of late, as it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is my video trip report:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
