Landing in the groove between water plumes is another successful approach. It is hard to say whether this type of landing is "planned" by the fish or just pure luck. But every time a fish landed in this little groove between the plume and the algae covered rock (green area under the water at top of fall) it made it. Yet this little pocket, what we call the zone, was all but impossible to see. Then is it just luck on the fish's part, or do they learn where to aim after a few failed attempts?
