Start by shooting the old shady piers, look for the darkest ones. It also helps if someone has sunk cover under or next to the pier. The piers with deep water nearby are always good. If the shallows are not producing work your way out towards the deeper ends of the piers until you find them.

you can also jig the docks , i like to reach as far under as i can and the best docks are the ones with the most shade under them usually a little closer to the water , early before sun gets up you can catch em on the outer edges but fish will move to shade as sun comes up !
