slow roll a 3-4" swimbait in pearl white on an 1/8oz head and 6-8lb flouro or mono. throw it any and everywhere. down the sides of docks is big, stay way back from them. the spots LOVE them!
 
For this time of year it's a dropshot and a blade bait for me. Gotta be flexible on depth - could be as shallow as 10' or less, they could be holding over brush in 30-40'. I haven't used a damiki rig on Lanier but think it could be effective to fish suspended deeper.
