Where the lakebed falls away there is nothing to stand a leg on, so the pier stops at the shelf and a floating platform carries on from there. Anchored, not legged, and it rides the chop instead of fighting it.

A pier out to the shelf, then a floating platform beyond it where the bottom is too deep to stand a leg.
