Use NOAA bathymetric charts and offshore fishing apps to identify canyons, lumps, ledges, and wrecks. Coordinate marks from local fishing reports point to historically productive structure. Many areas have published "hot spots" with GPS coordinates available through state agencies and angler associations.
SST and migration calendar pages cover the species you'd target on identified structure.
