When shore fishing for lakes how to determine where the fish are holding, what depth etc? What types of areas do you look for when you approach a lake?
Do you target steep drop offs accessible from shore?
Sheltered coves?
Particular type of bottom structure, sandy vs rocky?
Stream inlets?
When approaching a new lake I try to look at water clarity, shaded vs full sun, cover, and areas that have decent shore drop offs. I like to be able to fish a variety of depths before moving to another spot.
Thoughts and ideas? What about you?
