Hey y’all,

 

Our friendly neighbor moderator @roadwarrior has posted a thread in the past called Guaranteed to Catch Bass. In it, he tells you to find a well defined cove and work a couple baits parallel to the bank. 
 

Now, I have noticed, that this pattern - that is, paralleling cove banks - is definitely a thing that works on multiple large lakes that I’ve been on. 
 

I really want to know the logic behind this method. Why are bass likely to be found there? Why does it work?

Y'all wanna ask em that!

Those bass are generally bothered less than main lake fish. They could also be shallower. Running parallel to the bank keeps your bait in the strike zone longer.
