Just curious, have you filmed other docks too? Do most have that many bass under them? Are they suspended a few feet under it most of the time?

Thats the first time I've filmed under a dock. Thats a boat dock and you are not allowed to fish from it so its full of fish. Ive seen some really big ones under it in the 8-12lb range but in this video it looks like the biggest one is only around 5lbs. For the most part the fish stay right under the dock which is in about 15-20' of water.
From what I've learned about this lake the fish gather there when it warms up and the sun is high and its almost impossible to catch them. I don't think they are actively looking for food when under the dock but head out to deeper water structure in the mornings and evenings to eat trout. I've caught a number of fish in the 6-9lb range on swimbaits near the dock but never anything that came out from under it.

Thanks for sharing! It's interesting to see fish movement patterns and where they like to reside when not feeding. Hope you get a chance to film some other docks!

Very cool. Sometimes fishing around docks, I always wanted to see what goes on under there (if there are even any fish sometimes lol)
