I am not a dock shooter. My usual waters do not have docks or lake front homes. My idea is to use the dock shooting method to get up under low hanging tree limbs where even sidearm casts would be difficult. I would not use this method often, but certain conditions would warrant it. I have around 40+ rods. I would think that 1 of them would be a decent choice to begin trying this idea.
Now I have 2 questions:
1) What is the max distance attained?
2) What rod characteristics would you choose to get the best distance?
