I would imagine fish will swim with the current or find a way to minimize it's effect when looking for food. Why waste the calories.
Analogous, I suppose to bike riding into or with the wind.
Exceptions abound , but when I fish heavy current like the canal I first try fishing the plug swimming along the edge with the current.
Takes some work to give it the appearance of life, but it has paid off.
Sight casting to breaking fish is different. The fish are active on bait and just chase it around wherever it tries to go.
Just my two depreciated cents.
