On a first trip to Leora, check one quiet cove, one rocky or firm point and the nearby deep water with a moving lure, then use a jig or worm where you find fish.
A medium spinning rod covers smaller lures at Leora, while a heavier rod and stronger leader are better for northern pike.
At Leora, pick one cove and the closest point or drop into deep water, then fish that small area well before making a long move.
Not every trip. A better place at Leora is where a point, drop-off or group of baitfish gives the fish a reason to stop.
At Leora, it shows that a lot of the water sits away from the bank and around the old channel or deep end.
