    how do you ever figure out where to put them? I mainly fish Conway and there is a Cyprus tree, a stump, a lay down, and a brush pile every 25 ft in the whole lake it seems?

    In the areas you know that you can catch a fish pretty constantly.A local fishing hole everyone knows about.You put the cover where you know where you are casting or droping your jig. Just off the creek channel between two cypress trees or stump's.Good fishing.

    Fish follow contour lines or creek channel drops . Even stump fields can be better sometimes by adding stake beds or brush .

    Yes. I put out stuff in known stump bed areas and old road bed areas. I does help. Seems the fishes like the brush the best. I will replenish some areas this winter when I have the lake to myself. I ain't too old yet.
