3. -- Consult a topographical map and look for places where
elevation lines cross streams or brooks. Changes in
elevation usually mean rapids and pools, and rapids and
pools mean congregations of fish.
-- In lakes and ponds, fish often feed close to gradually
sloping shorelines, near the point where the water begins
to deepen. These are particularly auspicious spots.
-- Areas rich in moss or other aquatic plants are often
places where fish go to scavenge for food, and where
smart anglers do, too.
-- Sunken objects such as tree branches and rocks provide
fish with lots of places to hide, so they tend to be lively
places to snag a catch.
