Back when I did fish I never would fish around others docks. I know they didnt own the water, but felt like that was their space.
I never really minded people fishing my dock, as long as they were passing though. Until the last 2 years I always fed the fish at my dock. In the early spring the bream would cover me up...a few weeks later the carp would come in. Then the catfish would take over. You would be suprised how tame the fish get if you never bother them. The larger carp would always be the tamest(15 to 20 pounders) some of em would eat from your hand. The cats are wild at first, but as summer wears on they tame down a lot. When I threw food out I would have 20 to 30 in a feeding frenzy.
I usually fed em 50 pounds a week...they were happy fish. Funny thing, they could spot me comming long before I got on the walkway to the boathouse...start swarming the water like sharks.
We enjoyed watching them every afternoon. But then one night someone came in and caught every one of em. I quit putting feed out after that.
