The reality is that it may be your dock & boat, but you've placed them in "our" water. Thats a nice option for you when you buy waterfront property. Its often a nice option for "our" fish to live around your dock & boat. Thank you for enhancing "our" fishes environment!
On the other hand, it is still your boat & dock legally placed in "our" water and that SHOULD be respected.
While I generally avoid dock fishing, when I do, I always take into account the private property & the folks who use it. I always consider the possibility of swimmers in the area so I will do my best to avoid snagging your stuff & to retrieve any hook snagged in your gear. Mostly I just avoid the whole issue by fishing natural cover.
