[QUOTE="WTM, post: 4760286, member: 6230"] it does run parallel, thats why you look for points, cuts, etc. along the ledge. this is where the natural or generated current slams into those points, cuts, etc. to create more water pressure or current. on humps, the current will sweep across the top and a lot of the times it will be swept clean and exposing rocks or mussel shells, these type of humps are fish magnets. where a creek channel hits the main channel will create a point and current. an old big rock pile will create current and attract fish. then you have some of the old roads, bridges, drainage ditches, bridge pilons, etc. that are now under water after they built the TVA system. one thing that video that i posted didnt go into is boat position and casting angles. typically, fish will position facing upstream of the current. but sometimes they may want that bait quartering, sometimes perpendicular. try different presentation angles before you leave that spot. ever notice when fishing shallow on a lay down, stump, rockpile, etc. that a fish will hit on one side and not the other? its the same on a ledge, they have to see it to eat it. a heading sensor and one marker is a big help in keeping in line with the spot. like chunk said, look for something different. that will keep you on good fish and out of the “community” holes.
