Fished brushpiles in 10 to 20 feet of water around docks. When the lake is pressured, the deeper brush is a good place to catch fish that haven't been beat on all day. A dropshot is a good presentation for this. I use the lightest weight I can get away with on that given day and around a 2 feet tag end so I can keep the bait above the brush. Also less is more when it comes to moving the bait. Once the weight is in the cover just hold it still so there's not a lot of banging against the wood. I use livescope for this but traditional 2D will work fine.
