These are some great comments and example pics! Brushpiles on the heavily drawn down lakes are pretty obvious in the winter I suppose. I have looked at Cherokee via satellite when it was drawn down and could even see them this way.
Lakes that only draw down around 5ft and not reveal its contents makes one resort to other thoughtful tactics. One clue I often look for is also an obvious one like in the picture. A tree cut from the stump is at times directly straight out in deeper water. A few passes with the electronics and if your lucky wah la!
I have thought about writing up an article on this topic for newbies but its still just a thought.
I am sure some of you guys know tricks I have never even thought of.
