Your Secret Spot. Not all docks are created equal, though, in terms of their fish-holding potential.
Several characteristics create an ideal target.
A dock with pilings is better than a floating one, and those with wooden pilings usually work better than those made of metal. Search for docks constructed over or adjacent to deep water. Also, weed growth around or under the dock helps. Larger structures, especially those casting a big shadow over the water, are best. Choose docks that have a surface area sufficiently above the waterline so you can skip a bait underneath them.
