I should have explained. One of the key concepts in adding fishing structure (as opposed to protective cover) is the concept of vertical relief or change. A small vertical change (cover or bottom couture) on a flat area will hold fish. Highways funnel fish to structure and provide ambush points for predators. The archive has lots of good info and pics.

This link from the archive has a good written description by Paul Crawford on structure and fishing. The terms are a little different but the concepts sound for ponds.
