I have never done any dock shooting as there are none on Okatibbee but may have to learn. Most of my short rods are left over bass rods which are fairly stiff. However I do have a couple of short Ugly Stiks in spinning, a 5'6" and a 6'. I was wondering if they would be any good to shoot docks? I have plenty of spinning reels as I use to use them on my spider-rigging poles before going to all level winds. Any tips on getting started?
