The shallowness and moderate clarity support good weed growth, making weedlines, points, and subtle depressions key locations. Anglers who learn how West Bay fits into the broader chain—where bait and predators move as seasons change—can use it both as a productive fishing stop and as a strategic route between other favored lakes.

I had AI give me the coordinates for the launches I had on file. They are not super accurate, but should give a rough idea of where you can find the landings. If no coordinates were available at all I didn't link to the map.
