There is no wrong or right.I have caught em useing a 3/8 ball jig thrown way up current with a fin-s type bait attached.I have made perpendicular cast's and caught em on the swing I have bombed heavy jigs down current an just applied the lift an plop..Structure is the key but it can be hard to tell where it is at times.There might be tell tale signs in the ripples on the surface.But even then the best way is to probe it with a jig.I have a few area's I fish I can tell u excactly whats going on on the bottom.All from feeling around down there with a jig..Bass along with most other fish face into the current.Sure Bass will take advantage of hidey spots to get a break from the current and pounce on a unlucky food source.Don't think they cannot hold in the current just fine..I have seen bass of great sizes just playfully rolling on baitfish in a good 4 knots..Like someone said get out ther and experiment let the fish tell ya.I remember the yr I made the dedication to learning to fish the moving water.I have never left. U have to love the current..Where there is moving water u will find the fish.
And the NIB
As a aid next winter take up flyfishing for trout..U will learn how the fish one day will hold in the top of the hole one day in the back of the hole.U will learn the nuances of floating ur nymph with the proper presentation to fool ur prey behind that pc of structure.Trout like bass are oppurtunistic feeders.Its basically all the same.Just different tackle.Day to day things will change an u learn something new..Thats how u become better.
