If you want to cut that learning curve in half I'd highly recommend booking a trip with me this spring for bass or crappie, our guide service caters to the kayak angler. Just a thought...

I might just take you up on that this year. I really want to figure it out since I live 5 minutes from the water.

There's a "nature" area there and you can put in on the river. It goes straight down to the lake and into timber. It's a bit of paddling but it's protected by trees and the river so you should be out of the weather. I know where this bridge is. Do you know how to get to this "nature area" you're referring to if one is coming from Benbrook? I might try to go check it out on the way home today. It's the whiskey flats area if I remember right. There's a campground on one side and the other side's got a partial access road you can go down. Go to the (1187) gas station just past the bridge and you can turn around there. Drive down the side of 377 and you'll see where you can turn in. I'm on other forums that deal with the old turbo powered Buicks.;)
