Thanks for sharing the links. The Bending Branches paddle is so nice! I think my plan will be to go with a cheaper option to see what I prefer lengthwise, so I can make a well informed purchase on a nicer paddle down the road.

Just a “for fun” topic, but I am curious as it’s helpful information for those of us new to canoeing who want to do some camping/river trips. Thanks!

Looking for advice. I have an Old Town Discovery 133. It’s a bit over 40 inches wide at center. If I solo from the front seat facing backwards…wondering what length kayak paddle I would need? I’m about 5’10”. Unfortunately I don’t really have the opportunity to go out and try different...

How long is your canoe? What brand rack is that?

Michigan: Inland lakes, trout streams, four Great Lakes with miles and miles of shoreline. Isle Royale for camp canoeing. Excellent fisheries loaded with salmon and walleye.
