Shoot docks for sure....get cha some 1/24oz or 1/32 jigs and get er done!
Hey guys,
So I'll get the chance to fish Sinclair for a bit in about a week. I was wondering which tactic would be best for around this time of year? Shooting docks? or longlining? I'm rather inexperinced with both, but I'll have plenty of time to figure it out, but I just want to make sure that I'm giving myself the greatest chance to succeed.
Any jig/color suggestions and other tips for Sinclair for this time of year would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Try fishing with some minnows at night around the bridges
I would try docks with a 1/32 oz. jighead, color that works for me is red/chart. basspro 1.5 Squirmin' Squirts or the Bobby Garland Baby Shad in just about any color.Docks with brush and if they have a pontoon boat in them work best for me. Good Luck.
Get u some Jiffy Jigs, Rag Fly, and Sugar Bugs in 1/24 and 1/16 for those docks. Any combo of chart, pink, black, red, white, and bright blues will get u started. Start light and then work deeper and heavier.
Same baits on brush in 10-20 FOW will be holding some gooduns as it warms up more too.

Thanks for the tips guys.
I'll be packing up my dorm room today then traveling to Georgia tomorrow. I hope to be out on the water by Thursday. I'll be sure to let ya'll know how I do!
what shine runner said worked for me . dock shootring worked best .
retired and now i will always fish
Thanks for all the info guys. I got to georgia only to find the boat Im using to have motor problems. But yesterday I finally had enough and took it out with just the trolling motor. I hit about 10 docks, and found one that was holding fish. I caught about 15 before I moved on because I didn't want to fish out the first spot I found.
That was the first time for me shooting docks and to be honest the first few fish I caught were almost accidents. But after a few more, I got used to looking for "thump" and it was an absolute blast.
Waiting to get my motor problems fixed is absolutely killing me now. But if I don't have it up an running by tomorrow evening, I'm cutting my losses and taking a kayak out!
hate the motor trouble that hsppen to me at talquin last trip . had a broken ring on top cylinder . last trip to blacksher my other motor ran hot . so i was stuck with pontoon only to fish off of . cloged water tube was the probablem with the over heating .
