-
The best docks are old and wooden and have many cross
braces under water.
-
Check docks that have lights and rod holders on the
rail. These usually have brush piles.
-
Very good and silent boat control is needed to get
close but not spook the fish.
-
Ease the boat to within accurate pitching distance.
-
Pitch right against the posts, specially corner posts.
Just shake your Texas rigged worm at the bottom of the post. Pitch
or skip your bait in the shade under the dock, as far back as you
can get.
-
If bass do not bite your worm or lizard on the bottom,
they may be suspended. Use a jerk bait, crank bait or spinner bait
that runs where you can just barely see it. Get very close to the
dock. This can also work on floating docks.
-
Find the brush piles. These may be out from the dock.
Look for docks with lights and rod holders.
