Dock question

[eastkybass]

Just wondering what most of you use around the big Marina style floating docks?

I like to use a spinnerbait I was wanting to see what everyone else trys.

If you have deep water around the floating dock you can try vertical spoons (cold water).

Otherwise jerk-crankbaits or plastics of your choice.

Flukes are my favorite, Senkos, then everything in the boat

Why would fishing docks be moved to boating?    

LBH,

    are you taking meds again?

By the way, how are your migrains doing these days?

When you say marinas, I think of depth, most marinas are in deeper water.

Early mornings and darkness, I do like throwing a spinner in and around them.    When the sun gets up, I like to throw slow sinking baits, whether they are trick worms rigged wacky or a weightless senko.     Sometimes a splitshot works well.   Tubes, creature baits and even letting a jig swim back as it falls works well.     Mornings that don't have boat traffic early can make for some good top water bites also, but that is predicated on seasonal patterns.

Senkos, flukes, weightless worms, Anything I can drop in and have a slow fall to entice them to bite

Deep docks, my favorite type of fishing!!!  I like to fish a suspending jerkbait around them in the winter and early spring.  In the fall I love to swim white jigs and spinnerbaits around them.  My favorite way to catch fish around docks though is to flip and pitch soft plastics and jigs around them and get a bite on the fall.  Baits of choice are senkos, brush hogs, and eakins jigs.

If you can find any gaps/cracks or otherwise open areas to skip something under them then do it!  The further you can get up under them the better.  I prefer to skip tubes or senkos under docks but anything will work.

Forgot to mention if you cant skip under the dock you can tune your favorite crank bait to run left or right then cast beside the dock and run it under the dock.  Anything to get under that dock.

I agree i like using slow falling bait like a senko or trick worm or sometimes i will throw a spinner bait.
