If you put in kayak at twin bridges and float down to Neils Bluff, is there a place to take out at Neills Bluff? Never floated this stretch of the river and my boat is too big to go that far up other than my Kayak.

There is a turnout of sorts on Habberton Road by Neil's bluff where you can take out without too much hassle, but it's no boat ramp like TB or 412 access.  One thing to keep in mind is that if the wind is out of the north, that last stretch can be a bear - especially in a canoe.

Water's been higher this past couple of weeks, .. if you're looking to fish along Neil's Bluff and upstream, .  try putting your boat at Bryce's off 412 and boogie on upstream. I launched at Bryce's a week ago and went past Neil's and couple of bends further as well..  if I wanted, I probably could have gone to TB or close but caught a 30" striper there and left happy, ..... :) 

As for yaks, there's really not a whole lot of spot to take it out other than what Chub mentioned by Habberton Rd, .. but depending on the water level, there's quite a bit of walking and hauling your yak to your car, . which, if you parked by the side of Habberton Rd, you'd also have to contend with hauling the yak up a short slope to get to road level.

 

Hope this helps.

Pics from 3-10-16 around 7:00AM:

First is Neill's Bluff. The parking area I was used to is more or less gone, so I had to point, click, and hope for a decent shot while driving:

Then Ran over to Twin Bridge Launch. Three pics total - first is far right, next is middle, final is far left. I could've gotten out and taken a panoramic shot, but it was rainging... And I was afraid I'd melt :innocent:
