Trip Overview
Great put-in at Paddle Point. My friend and I first went under the railroad trestle - and explored the north side of the tracks. Water was a little high - so we did encounter a few stumps that were slightly submerged and not visible because of the murky water. We also swam for a bit - though the water was not cool. (it was not hot - but it wasn't as refreshing as it could have been.) The lake police (Dallas PD) did pop into the area under the trestle just to scan the north section of the lake - probably looking for boaters with alcohol - however there were only 5-6 kayakers - so they left the area without hassling anyone.Safety Notes
