Thread: ATTN: Dock Hoppers !

If you fish LOZ often you know which docks to stay back a little bit. Thanks for the heads up on what's going on. LOZ is why I changed to a longer, sturdier rod so you can reach in there and lift those slab out. I lost many of fish with a flimsy rod trying to lift them out of there.

Don't have to have a no trespassing sign, dock is private property, just fish around them, not on them to much water to fuss over, and with all the thefts in and around docks, and parking lots at every lake, I can understand there paranoia ....

no one has a right to be on someone's dock, period. you should be reported and cited if you are.

I'm kinda with LSL on this....if I get hung up on a dock I'd kinda like to get my jig back.... and I'd like to think the dock owner would not want loose hooks laying around....if I'm walking my dog and he craps in someone's yard the owner probably would want me to retrieve the turd.

If I dock shoot and miss and it is way up on a dock usually I will break off but if its close where I can get it with one step I am going for it. Also with the braided line I may pull his bar and stools off the dock trying to break it off. Yes I am a terrible shot at times dock shooting.
