Pond Docks of Members
A dock, pier, or jetty on a pond or lake makes the water body more usable and enjoyable for many pond related activities. Docks can be a designed and built before or after the pond is filled or installed as a floating dock after the pond is full. Docks can be built as a cantilever structure that has a massive cement base and the dock extends out over the water.
Water fluctuation is a factor to consider when building a dock. Purpose, use and size are other factors to consider. Here are links to what others have designed and built for their ponds. Herman Brothers Pond Management in Peoria IL, as members here, will custom build a quality dock for your water body. Other advertisers here for prebuilt docks include Connect-A-Dock, Ellison Marine, and EZ Doc of Texas.

- There are some plans for using 50 gallon plastic barrels for floats. As long as the floats are positioned correctly, you'll end up with a pretty stable dock. I'll dig up some links later(they are somewhere in my 10k+ list of favorites), and I'll replace this text with the links. EDIT: Here's a link I found:
