I remember a while back someone posted pictures of a kayak trip down the Tallapoosa that ended at Lake Martin I think. I will be at the lake next week and have thought about putting in at the Horseshoe Bend Park and kayaking down to the boat launch near the railroad bridge at the north end of the lake. Does anyone know if this is doable and about how long it might take?

I, and my trusty guide have made the trip several times and I highly recommend it. It's beautiful scenery and the wild azaleas and cahaba lillies may be in bloom. Take a camera in a waterproof bag, you'll probably see an eagle. It's about 10 miles and takes about 4 hours. There are multiple shoals to navigate. I have used both a sit-on-top and enclosed kayak. If the water level is low and they're not running water at Harris Dam, you may have to walk your boat through some spots. We take out at Jaybird creek, it's right below the last long run of shoals, after that, it's flat water. Trusty Guide and I are planning that trip Friday, depending on the weather. If you need more info, email me.
