Structure is an irregular feature such as a ridge, hump, dropoff, point,
seawall, riprap etc. Cover is an object or objects that the fish can relate
too & use for an ambush point or refuge, such as stumps, docks, laydowns,
rocks, etc. Ideally you have cover on structure, a recipe for great
fishing.

If you strategically plant some cover on your structure, you can create
productive fishing spots for many years to come.

Say you know a ledge that holds scattered fish. Find irregularities such as
points & turns in the ledge & sink a brushpile on those irregular features,
and the fish will use them as long as water temp, conditions & food is
present.

The piles I plant are made of fresh hardwoods & anchored with cinder blocks.

Just about anything makes structure on barren lakes. The thing to
remember is to locate it very close to another structure (point,ridge,
saddle, shelf close to a channel, on a long point that runs close to
channel, etc.) or on top of a large barren structure to help locate
them in a smaller area.

I think I have asked this before here - what do you consider structure,
and what do you consider cover?
