Frequently Asked Questions
For dock fishing, floating docks perform best in deeper water where levels fluctuate, while stationary docks are ideal for shallow areas and provide dependable stability.
When selecting a boat dock, consider the type of fishing you want to do. Saltwater fishing requires durable, corrosion-resistant materials.
A public pier can offer great fishing opportunities, but a private dock gives you more control over your fishing environment and access to your favorite dock year-round, without crowded spaces.
The best time for dock fishing changes with the season and the species you’re after. In spring, many fish, like bass, bluegill, and crappie, move into shallow water to spawn, making docks prime fishing spots. During summer, fish seek shade and cooler water under docks, with early mornings and evenings offering the most activity. Always check local fishing reports to match your timing with what’s biting in your area.
A smaller system, like a modular dock or floating dock, is perfect for dock fishing in shallow waters, offering flexibility and easy maintenance. It’s ideal for small fish and can be expanded as your needs grow.
To attract more fish to your dock, provide both food and shelter. Use live bait, dead bait, or soft plastics to draw them in, and add cover like brush piles, submerged logs, PVC structures, or dock fish attractors to create a habitat fish can’t resist. Shade is equally important—especially in summer—since cooler, darker areas naturally hold more fish. For night fishing, keep your dock well-lit, and if you’re fishing saltwater, make sure your dock is maintained and resistant to corrosion.
