How to: Analyze A Lake

 

Breaking Down A Lake

"This diagram shows the channels and the structure situations (marked with an "X") that must be checked out. 

You notice we have placed the "X" in relation to the deepest water in the area (channels). 

Please be aware of the fact our interpretation STARTS at the deepest water, not at the shallows. 

During our presentation of lures we may start at the shallows and work toward the deepest water (channels), but our "interpretation" of a PRODUCTIVE structure situation must start at the channel (deepest water in the area). 

Study this figure very carefully."

- Buck Perry, 1983
