Sometimes deep water access can be helpful... I do fish the backs of the bays and mainlake points regularly.. If I know where a point has stumps. that is a key location many times.. You just have to have patience and by slow-rolling a spinnerbait or swimming that OUCHDOWM WORM, that allows me to cover more water THEN.... after I locate some fish, I will slow down and exas Rig or Carolina Rig soft plastics and fish it THOROUGHLY..

Sugar Creek and Ramp Creek are some of my favorite starting points but I have fished EVERYPLACE on the reservoir.
