The bait and tackle shop is closed. The best place to put in is around the corner at Tygerberry Landing (388 Berry Shoals Rd). It’s an easy put in. A nice place to paddle just on the lake or upstream on the river but it does get very shallow at times. I have never gone this far but it’s possible to go all the way up to the bridge that crosses 85.
