What’s the code of conduct when maneuvering your boat to fish around private docks, shorelines and marinas? Boating Magazine has 8 rules to consider when boating near private homes and docks.
- Avoid stepping on or touching private property. The moment you even bump your boat into a dock, it could be considered trespassing.
- If you see people swimming, don't fish. You don't want to take a chance of injuring someone with a hook or lure.
- If a resident asks you not to boat or fish near their shoreline, don't argue. There are plenty of other docks and shorelines to fish, and arguing will only ruin an otherwise pleasant day on the water.
- Don’t fish around private docks and shorelines with novice anglers. Such fishing requires precise casts to avoid snags and catch fish. It’s experts-only in the dock-fishing game.
