I would like to comment on this....I live on Toledo Bend lake in Texas. I have an 80 ft dock on the lake. I have gotten a few new fishing lures over the years from people hanging them on my dock and even got a brand new frog in my boat once. I have caught many a fish on that frog. I agree that sometimes people can get on your nerves getting next to the dock when I'm on it with friends and family but that is very rare. The biggest problem is the inconsiderate "people" (this word used in order not to be banned from the site) on jet ski's and ski boats coming into the cove and causing huge wakes that bash boats up against the dock. Wish it was legal to treat them the way they deserve to be treated.
