Hi Chris,

LOL we had those conditions for a little T Saturday up here (NH). It was a
watersupply lake, so no docks but they ate the jig and pig nicely 'till they
got active (then a spinnerbait.

I like a sluggo, senko or light t-rig around certified dock fish. I can't
baitcast-skip a jig&pig to the back of a 30' floating dock, but I can
usually get the hops I need to reach the piers & ladders.

FWIW, I also had the worst dock fishing year ever - never got on a good
pattern (still won the bassman again tho).

Eric,

Actually there is a couple problems with thinking those fish will be out
moving around. If you are referring to overcast skies and rain will have
the fish roaming . The problem with that is , if the temperature change
wasn't subtle and and the pressure changed dramatically (rising) it could
push those fish even tighter to cover overcast or not. 50 degrees is
really not all that cold, but if the water went from 60 to 50 in a short
period of time it could shut those fish off.
Also, if you have a lot of wind and those fish are roaming and a soft
plastic jerkbait is to hard to fish , I would switch to a suspending rogue
or maybe a husky jerk (or Long-A). At least you could keep constant
tension on the bait as you work it.
Then again I could be totally F.O.S because I have never seen your body of
water, and what kind of structure you have available, or what the primary
forage is, or anything else, except that you have docks :-)

just a few thoughts

OK, it's a cold day, and the water up here has already cooled into the
50's anyway. The wind is making boat control difficult and the use of
lightweight plastics damn near impossible. I'll be tossing a jig and
pig, probably a 3/8 oz to start. Since it looks like a crappy day, the
fish should be roaming out from the cover a bit, so I won't have to work
at skipping it too much on this pesky levelwind.
