OTW Hours Logged

[Abdiver]

The other night I was doing a system test on my Humminbird fishfinder and decide to check the self test which logs the number of hours of use. Within this last year I have logged 160hrs + on the water, I  almost fell over.......

I am curious of how many hours others have logged?

[LoletaEric]

I log all my trips in a journal and could approximate it from that, but I don't have any piece of electronics that I use enough to track the exact hours.  WTG on the 160.

I just sat here for the last 40 minutes doing 2011 trip compilations from the journal - 33 trips on the yaks for an approximate 94 hours on the water so far through the end of June.  I'm burnt and will finish later this week - thanks for the inspiration.

I also log every fishing trip, but I'm nowhere close to 160hrs this year. I've got 15 trips logged, so I'd guess I'm somewhere around 70-80 hrs of actual water time. I don't count non-fishing paddles anymore, but if I included those it would probably put me up another 30 hours or so.

33 trips? 160 hours? You guys are both doing something right

I'm somewhat ashamed to admit this and I doubt that it would ever happen again, but I'm estimating 2-300 hours for a 2 month period in late summer.  Add up all of the other trips and it's just way too much time otw.

It was a great experience and now it's time to re-prioritize things.

Guess not as many as last year, as i've been spending more time Chilling, than Fishing recently    Gonna have to start that log next year, thanks for the reminder!  always figured I could just look at all my posts and figure it out, but would be much easier if i just kept a log.  I do have every "planned" trip in a calendar, so I know how many events I went too, but just not all the other quick or last minute trips.

My year off is coming to an end..... I had a great time and caught some fish!

[e2g]

just did the math, and about 260 hours a year.  But look at it this way we work 8-10 times that, so we need MORE OTW time.  Fish more, work less 

anybody willing to pay me to fish?   

I can plaster myself with ads, and I have a lot of square footage to offer, way more than those skinny athletes

I have gone fishing 46 days so far this year, not all of them were in the yak though.   anyone keep track of their number of fish caught?  I am at 528 for this year, mostly trout and most were released.

I fish pretty much once a week every week of the year which puts me in the 2-300 hour club with Hai and Eugene. If you add the commute time it is over 500.

i'm not at liberty to say

I would guess 250 or so. Been on the water at least once a week all year. 5-6 hours per trip min.
