Upper Camas Lake is small water, so a careful lap around the bank can show most of the useful cover.
Near the gravel lip of a shaded bank, the fish mix here is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
Beside the clean side of a main-lake point, 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 weed line of a steep shoreline, 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.
Near the clean side of a steep shoreline, spring runoff can add color and pull fish toward fresh water; green weeds and the first drop become stronger summer targets; in fall, follow bait toward points and shallow flats, while winter rewards a slower search.
Along the soft edge of an inlet turn, 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.
Around the steep side of a patch of green weeds, record the wind, water color, depth where the lure was hit, 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.
