This is true if the paddle is fully submerged.  If you're talking 
about a paddle blade on the surface, then the blade is planing and 
we're not dealing with lift.  Increasing the "AoA" of a planing blade 
means that you're changing the ability to plane and the behavior is 
not the same as a stall.
