Near the deep corner of the nearest cove, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
Near the hard edge of an inlet turn, 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.
Along the outside edge of an open-water break, make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
Across the rocky lip of a patch of green weeds, in spring, start with warming banks, creek mouths, and shallow cover; summer usually pushes the better bite toward the outside weed edge or a nearby drop; fall can bring bait back to windblown points, while winter calls for smaller moves and a slower pace.
Near the first edge of an outside bend, 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.
Near the channel lip of the nearest cove, record the wind, water color, depth that held fish, 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.
