Productive areas are often found around structure. Deep pools adjacent to rock bars or undercut banks consistently hold fish. Confluences with smaller tributaries attract bait and predators. Areas with submerged timber, fallen trees, and lily pads provide excellent cover, especially for Barramundi ambushing prey. Rocky ledges and outcrops that create current seams are prime spots for Sooty Grunter.
