Docks
Fishing has been tough on Lake Palestine as it is receiving a lot of pressure lately. However, the fish are still biting. Fishing docks all day is definitely the recipe for success right now. If you can find docks with brush even better, but focus on docks with lots of shade and getting your bait as far back as possible. Also, in the morning throwing topwater baits like the Choppo over the flats in between docks can reward you with a bite or two from a nomad chasing baitfish. Don't be afraid to throw topwater in the dock rotation of baits either as you go through out the day.
