When your character owns a boat, he starts a new fishing trip anchored to the dock(he wont drift). If you start fishing before moving the boat, u will be anchored to the dock. I used the term anchored; maybe, tied to the dock would me more appropriate. Although, I dont see an anchor or rope at that time, I just feel like it is the case. If I am wrong about this, I hope Paul will clear this up.
I have two characters, one is Joe the docker, the other is Joe the boater.
Joe the docker always starts his fishing trip on the docks (since he never bought a boat).
Joe the boater bought a boat, so he always starts his fishing trips in a boat.
I hope this is clearer
