I fish Truman also and wondered the same thing. Is it worth the time when there is so much natural cover? I’ve also thought about trying to put out some near known, high pressure trees in hopes of drawing the fish off of them to the attractors due to less fishing pressure. Do you all think that it could work or would time be better spent fishing what is there already?
I know that we have tied up to a tree and didn’t catch anything from it, but off the other side of the boat we pulled fish after fish out of what seems to be no cover, as we left the tree we would go over the area with the depth finder and sure enough there was a tree, brush pile or something well below the surface. The times this as happened was days with fairly high fishing pressure. Could it be the fishing pressure, or is it just that, for some reason, they liked the unseen cover better? I know there are a lot of variables that I can’t control but just wondering.
