fishing docks
Waterfront casting spots
Fishing docks are waterfront platforms where fishing boats tie up to load, unload, and resupply.
Commercial fishing docks bustle with activity as crews offload their catch: The fishing docks smelled of salt and fresh mackerel.
The term also covers recreational piers where people fish from shore: We spent the afternoon casting lines from the fishing dock.
