Coulter Pond #1 is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Around the deep side of a shallow saddle, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
Near the current seam of a quiet pocket, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.
Near the hard edge of a small bay, do not let the deepest number control the whole day; nearby cover, firm bottom, and food usually matter more than the deepest hole by itself.
Across the shaded side of a rocky point, early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again.
Along the rocky lip of a firm-bottom hump, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.
Across the sunny side of the nearest cove, record the wind, water color, depth of the best pass, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
