How To Fish Boat Docks

[@notsogood6249]

I learned a new tip for floating docks. My first set of docks I like to fish are the docks that the morning sun hits on first. I use my FFS to see if they are fish around the dock, or if they have any bait fish nearby. I drop shot the pile on that are shaded first and then underneath the dock with a jig, spinnerbait, or chatter bait. When the sun gets straight up, I go to the opposite side of the lake and start fishing those docks by skipping a bait under them. Not say my technique always works but when it does, I enjoy the rewards. Good luck on your remaining tournaments this year. I recently purchased some D Bomb baits; I have caught some 5 and 6 pounders this summer in hay grass. Can't wait to try them this year during spawning time.

Thanks John!

I do the same thing but with a spinnerbait. That was my favorite trick as a back of the boat angler.

What equipment are you using

I like that secret tip JC.

Can we talk about topwaters. When buzz baits over ploppers, poppers.ober walking. Generally when and where each would apply. And what to do after a lightning storm. I get my butt handed to me after a lightning storm on our Ozark lakes, specifically truman lake missouri. Great videos and good luck to the rest of the season

If I didn't know better id say you were on lake harding. Good video John.

What rod are you usually using to pick apart docks

It’s a Cashions Rod

[@jaredjones2915]

@@jermaineroach976 I already figured that. I’ve got a bunch of the icons. I’m just wondering which one.

[@jermaineroach976]

⁠No clue which one bc they have so many different models so it’s hard to say. I only have one, I’m not a big fan of them. I think they are over priced right along with a lot of other rods that I own 😂

[@jaredjones2915]

@@jermaineroach976 I feel like they’re underrated at the price point. Sensitivity is comparable to loomis glx in my hands. I came from mostly Dobyns and phenix and it outshines them. There’s a couple of Dobyns and phenix I kept though. I have one other company I wanna try in the future.

[@jermaineroach976]

@@jaredjones2915I own Dobyns and Phenix rods and I love them. Cashions rods to me are jig rods and I’m not a jig fisherman. Like I said I own one and it barely gets used.

Neat trick to getting under a boat dock.
