Here in Kansas the eastern red cedars grow like weeds, are tough as nails, and usually 5-9' tall making them an ideal candidate to sink for brush piles. I've never sunk artificial cover before but I know there are some firm believers in that as well. What are your guys' favorite types of cover (not structure) to fish?

Deep cover.

 

Not visible, not shoreline, stuff that's challenging to discern even with the best of electronics.

 

The type that I Never sit on if there are other anglers around but always camp out on at night.

Deep wood is my go to. It seems to always produce for me!

I've always liked lay downs around grass.

Whatever is holding fish the best on that day!

Old docks with wood or rocks as the support.

Either docks with support poles that go to the bottom, or rocks. Rocks are one of those types of cover that ALWAYS hold fish. 

My favorite is finding a rocky bottom with laydowns in it.  Its almost given fish catcher.

X3^. I love bouncing a crankbait along rocks for both largemouth and smallmouth. It's a killer tactic.

Hydrilla and Milfoil are my favorite types of cover.

Particularly where they merge with emergent veggies like bulrushes, waterlilies or maidencane (the more the merrier).

I have my best luck in the grass lines but I am still a rookie

grass and rip rap for me.

Although there are few lakes around here that have it, I love fishing rip-rap.  I caught my first bass on a Creme worm off a stretch of rip-rap leading to a bridge that I fished for crappie from.  I didn't do much crappie fishing after that, I'd just walk up and down that causeway casting and catching bass. 

I love to throw a jig into beaver huts. Big producer of big fish for me.

Grass, docks, and lay downs..... In no particular order.

wood and more wood then rocks and grass

Grass, lilypads, and laydowns.  Any combination of those three.

Rocks !

Don't care as long as it's not thick vegetation, lily pads and muck.  I dislike having a tug of war with plants or pulling up a 2# fish with 12# of salad or slime attached to it.  A lily pad doesn't take out drag.

My least enjoyable catch was my PB bass, 13.86 lbs surrounded by 40 pounds of elodea.

any kind of grass or lily pads

Deep rocks.
