I'll try to answer some ?'s for you regarding the area lakes. Tims Ford, Wood's and Normandy all have areas that are easy to kayak fish. Also, the Duck and Elk rivers are great for kayaking with sections for trout and sections for Smallmouth, black perch, crappie and catfish. These are easy to access. Tim's Ford has several ramps to launch your kayaks. Woods and Normandy have easy access points in several areas. Kayaking is always safer and more fun during the week, as all these areas have heavy boat traffic on the weekends. I can answer specific ?'s if you"ll pm me with your phone #. Good luck
