Yes, but there will be something nearby even 100metres away. Either structure or bait.

There are many areas of the Bay that have no structure but hold good Snapper. Often they are shell or gravel beds with a little weed growth. Good sounders will show this ground. Most of the ones I fish are also near stucture. Snapper will also follow the bait over open ground
