[QUOTE="ccm, post: 355158, member: 13447"] I do that all of the time on the large lake that I fish ( Richland Chambers Reservoir TX which is 45000 + acres ) There 6 ramps and a few other areas that I can launch my boat at around this large lake. Knowing the seasonal patterns of fish & what they relate/do during certain times of year will help decide what areas of the lake you can fish to be successful. I'm a firm believer that 80+% of the fish are in around 20% of the water. A good way to find a pattern on a lake that your new to fishing is to find a large long creek arm that is connected to the main lake. It will allow you to cover many different types of cover, depth, & presentations without having to run all over the lake. I fish out of a 14ft v hull with a 4hp on it & my main concern on big water is safety. Big lakes can turn ugly & unforgiving in a heartbeat. Make sure you have areas where you can duck out of the wind & waves quickly. Trust me 3ft waves are scary in a 14ft boat. [/QUOTE]
