How do you approach swirling current or turbulent current in creeks and rivers?

Most of the time I encounter this behind boulders, especially ones that break the surface. Directly behind the boulder or maybe bridge pillar or structure usually seems to be a small dead spot followed by a mess of currents or a strong eddy heading back upstream towards the obstruction. I’m talking about the sloppy ones not the clean, uniform, fishable pockets.

Do you bother with it and experiment or ignore it all together?
