Best Beginner Bait To Skip Under Docks
For beginners, the best baits to skip under docks long, round, solid baits. The two best baits that come to mind are
Yamamato Senko or Zoom Centipede. I would suggest staring with the 5” Senko. These weight slightly less, yet have enough weight to skip well. If you pick a centipede, either use a 3/0 to 5/0 hook to give a little more weight, use a pinch on weight, or press a small nail into the tip to add weight. Don’t add to much weight, as this will nullify the skipping ability. Also, don’t use a Texas rig. Either no weight at all or very light weight, less than 1/16 oz, Florida or peg to weight.
