I was asked to build a dock on lake front property. Does the dock have
to float or can I build it like I would a deck? Please help. The dock
would run 20 out into the water and would be about 2 feet deep at it's
deepest point.

Some fishermen like floating docks so they can cast up under them.

Some like wooden docks with plenty of horizontal boards for the fish to hold
up against.

Build a solid/non-floating steel dock with no horizontal beams and the fish
and fishermen will probably stay away.


Thanks for the tip.

And why are you asking this on a fly tying forum?


With all the fisherman around here I figured someone might have built
one on his lake front property.

Fisherman by nature, goofball by society.
