Fished with the megabass 6" freestyle magdraft today. I targeted docks on main lake and secondary points. Bluebird skies and a light wind is a really good time to throw a swimbait on Norris, so I took advantage of it. The freestyle magdraft is really easy to skip and that is a must when fishing floating docks. There is really no other way to get around all the cables and mechanics if you want to fish areas most people avoid. I like Berkley trilene big game 20lb mono when I doing this. It's cheap but it holds up really well to the wear and tear of the metal cables and anything else the docks can throw at it. I don't do anything special as far as the retrieve. I just skip it up under the dock as far as I can and slow roll it back to the boat.
