Life is too short to only hunt and fish on weekends!
If being a dumbass was fatal some of you would be on your death bed!

The best fisherman I know (you'd absolutely know him and his partner too) shared something with me several years ago that I've found to be 95% true... He said "I've put out literally hundreds of brush piles over the past dozen or more years, and the majority of them NEVER held a fish. I've put them deep on ledges, all depths and contours, under docks, bridges, you name it. The most important thing I found out is that brush won't make bass be where they aren't already." That has also been MY experience. I have placed cover on structure where I was already catching fish, and it will isolate them to that cover, often the very biggest fish. But I've wasted lots of good cover trying to move fish to a secret spot that nobody else knows about. For me it's been just like everything else we already know about bass fishing---bottom comp makes all the difference. (But I guess that goes back to the statement about fish already being there) What has shocked me the most about brush/cover is how strong the current is and how it will move insanely heavy objects. I have put multiple items in Choccolocco Creek (off the main Coosa channel), I mean all over way up the creek even, and it would be gone (or sometimes moved a LOOOOONG way) within days. I built "stumps" out of 5-gal buckets and 3" pipe one time---each bucket had nearly a full bag of Quikrete in it, plus I put 4 legs sticking out 6' tall and filled each of them full with Quikrete. I'm guessing they weighed 250-300 pounds. We put 6 of them in a row on the tip of a point (yes on the channel, but well up the creek). I have NEVER found them again!!!!! LOL

We were on the edge of Eternia, when the power of Greyskull began to take hold.
