As an example
I normally fish for halibut but I'm not going to drop my bait down in an area where I see nothing but kelp or rocks/structure. However, the minute I see a sandy bottom near that structure down goes the bait. Why? because I know that hali's hang out in sandy bottoms near kelp and rocks/structure.
What were you fishing for?

i was fishing for large mouth bass. Havent taken it in the ocean yet. but they were everywhere. and then I would be in about 30ft of water with a flat bare bottom and out of nowhere 10 (big) fish would be under me in about 15ft of water and then disappear. These were the striper schools which I do want to eventually target. I just need to know how to actually read where the fish are in terms of real life
