Question for MN guides. How do you go about finding fish on new water? Some things to consider: season, baitfish in that lake, weather, pressure, baits used, etc.

I have a friend that says to always start your figure 8 to the left which would make the fish turn right. He says that muskies are way more likely to strike when turning right. Is there any truth to this? Is there any rule of thumb for this?

Matt Maher and Judy Bowen,
My ? is, can there be to much bait fish to trigger a Musky to strike?
Example:
We fish here in Erie in the bay and troll the main channel out into the lake and we will come across massive bait fish schools sometimes 50 yards long from top to bottom, how would you fish it?
