Probably both. The boat ramp at Crane Creek Reservoir is about a 1/2 mile away from the deep hole at the pump house.
It takes awhile to paddle to it with my kayak. There is a area that we can pull down next to the reservoir which is only about 50 to 75 yards from the pump house so I'll launch the pontoon there. If they are biting then I'll put my kayak in.
I hate launching my kayak and paddle all the way over and not get a single bite.
This is my redneck fish finder because I don't care much for the rolling the kayak fish finder.

You can see here what I'm talking about. It shows the dam and pump house where the deep hole is
and at 1:11 the boat launch is dead center of the video.
Just to the left of the dam, you can see the little area you can pull down into but is still about
20 yards or so from the water. It's pretty steep there and I don't have the lungs to pack my kayak that far
so I launch at the boat launch.
Ugly area in the summer but beautiful in the Spring.
I've posted crawler pics from there also. Great area to crawl and the Coyote hunting is awesome also.
