    Having not fished it myself I would say to try the deeper 18-24 areas. I would start looking in the deep points or deep narrows first. For example if a deep hole has a “v” shape for contour lines I would look low and near the point of the “v” first. There are a few locations on theta map that catch my eye. I will try a screen shot and attach with some marks.

    But then again I have also had good times fishing smack dab in the middle of a basin too.
    Don’t rule anything out on a new body of water till you have tried it. Sometimes more than once too.

    I like the looks of most of the spots mark attached too. Two things I noticed as well that beg exploration(sorry, no good with the screen shot thingy):
    1) That little narrow slot of deeper water up against the point on the NW side of the main lake basin(between Mark’s red squares around the 21′ and 24′). Being adjacent to a shallower bay nearby for feeding, may be a good holding area. Bonus is quick to explore.
    2) Not the deepest water in the lake, but the 12′-15′ contour just west of the island and saddle looks interesting as well. Especially towards a feeding time/evening bite?
