Yeah, the center of the lake is mainly flat straight across from southwest to northeast (that map on the other thread was pretty accurate). We use concrete and cinderblocks, set up a row of trees, like 4 or 5 of them we can usually get a hold of, and try to start a new row where the old rows ended.
Directly across the lake from my dads lake is a n area that has some of the best fishing, likely because of the sharp dropoff. The homeowner there has added some artificial cover, fake plants and a big boulder or two.
Directly adjascent to my dads is a thick, thick weedbed, where I've been catching a lot of pike, and also the south end of the pond, where the big shallow flat suddenly drops off to the deepest area of the pond, we've nabbed a few there as well.
So there are 3 pike-productive areas we have noted, although those are spring and fall observations.
What of that bass...does it look healthy? As I say on every thread I comment on, im no pro, but compared to what we were catching in '08-'09, id say yes.
