One inch bluegill is the goal for this year.  The thing I love about micro fishing is that you can fish anywhere,at any time, in any body of water.  The most important piece of terminal equipment is the hooks. I would recommend the snelled ( Owner $4.00) since you don't have to worry about tying the line on the hook. The snelled line is about 1# test. You can add to any main line via a loop to loop connection. I usually use 1-2 # test for the mainline

Let me know if you have any questions. You can pick up the gear at the website listed below.

I have a number of these poles, didn't even know it.  I also have the hook tyer to make your own shells and rigs along with a split shot tool to help you with those #10's. 

I am getting very excited to fish coming up. Side note as well - I am usually fishing no stronger than 2 lb. test as a leader and at times, 1.5 lb. is the go-to. Using this for micro fish- is where people catch the big fish - same rig. My favorite style is micro fishing but these poles are not matched to our fish as well - they are too slow and don't provide the right power-to-cartilage set you would want. A lot of the silver fishes this method is designed for don't have the boney gill mouth and thinner, softer lip tissue. When you are talking these rigs - this is definitely my favorite world of fishing- only the poles are slightly different and the floats also. I use better floats. More soon on this.
