Shane LeHew: Why you’re not getting bit on Docks — Full gameplan for bass on docks

Fishing tips for Largemouth bass: If docks are everywhere on your lake but you’re not getting consistent bites, you don’t need “more docks” — you need a better plan. Bassmaster Elite Series pro Shane LeHew breaks down dock fishing the way he actually thinks about it: which docks are worth your time, where the fish sit as conditions change, and how to make the casts that reach the ones everyone else leaves behind. What you’ll learn: • How Shane chooses floating vs. pole docks based on season and water clarity (clear/prespawn vs stained/ambush) • Why sun + shade can make (or kill) the floating-dock bite • The “first cast goes to the hardest hole” rule — and why rushing docks costs bites • Shane’s core dock baits: 3/8–1/2 oz skipping jig, plus wacky/finesse options when conditions demand it • How far to stay off in clear water, and why skipping beats pitching for spooky fish • Where bass set up on cable/crossmember docks (front structure vs. backside “hardest to reach”) Guest: Shane LeHew — Bassmaster Elite Series pro; lifelong dock fisherman (Lake Norman roots); known for precision skipping and “hardest-cast-first” dock approach.
