I havnt had a full read up, or in fact practiced this.
So, I'm planning on fishing a new stillwater, first thing to do?? Turn up first thing, watch the water for fishy signs.. Plumbing up a float for depth I can do but reading different articles about how there's a bed a weed, or a gravel bed, silt patch... Etc. Etc.. Without a diving suit how do I know what's in front of me when I get to a new swim?
Chuck a weight around guesstimate the depth, but bottom conditions? If it comes back covered then it's weed
Cmon, someone give me some newbie tips before I go searching online.. What would you do first time at a new lake
