You make a valid point, but with a little common sense an experienced fishermen can determine natural from man made structures at least 90% of the time in my opinion. It actually doesn’t make much difference anymore. These guys with there side imaging and live scope electronics will eventually wipe out the crappie. There are so many big fish being hauled out of Santee these days there won’t be any left to spawn come spring time.
