Unfortunately I do not own a boat so I have to walk around the lake and fish from the bank. Is there certain areas I should focus on without wasting all of my time walking instead of fishing? Also with limited space what gear would you recommend. I have searched google maps but the lakes I fish do not have underwater mapping. Can I follow the contour lines of the surrounding land from the bank into the water?I have been out scouting with recent drawdown but we have had a very wet year so I am still limited. Any tips to be more productive from the bank would help tons.

Thank you for all the great advice. Will be adding these tips to my fishing
