I got to thinking about this when I last walked out on my dock. Fish everywhere, of course. Feeder & structure, so why not? But the water is warming fast, so...
Then I realized that the water isn't warming so fast under the dock (and under the pontoon boat attached to the dock)
Dock fishing during the summer is very effective. But what if it's not just about structure, nor about shade for their eyes, but lower temperatures? I recall reading an article about False River, a large oxbow lake near Baton Rouge, where measured temps under docks during summer were 20F lower than surrounding water!
