May depend on current ... any current will put fish on the down current side.
May depend on cover ... cover not only provides an ambush point, safety from predatory fish, & shade, but it also acts as a current break.
IMHO ... the "best" way to fish this point, is to determine "where" on the point the fish are (or are most likely to be) and then pick the method that will allow you to put your bait within their depth range and at a speed of movement that fits the mood they're in or what the water temps dictate.
You should also be aware of any thermocline that may be present in your waters. Water temps will be the coolest & dissolved oxygen content will be the lowest (that fish can survive in) at the depth of the thermocline. At whatever depth the baitfish are running, the fish will likely be close to that same depth or slightly below. Neither fish nor baitfish can survive below the thermocline for very long.
