Dock Fishing

Most nights during October and November, I’ve walked out on our dock to make a few casts. I’ve caught silver perch, bluefish, speckled trout, gray trout, flounder, and striped bass. The one species that has not made an appearance this fall is puppy drum. The fish are small but are fun on the really light tackle. I have landed rockfish to 23 inches and broke a nicer fish off last night when I let it get to a piling. I might have to go to heavier tackle if larger rock are going to show up.
