You broke your own rule Bruce. You asked a question. ;)
Tell him while I listen Josh!!!!!! Now that's payin' attention.
Waxworms or red worms tipped on a jig. Use a small float and get ready cuz some will be big!
First find them. Fish the bottom 2 feet. Keep your bait scented. Let the bluegill eat the hook first.
flourocarbon line....a tiny float.........and a good pair of Costa Del Mars....

costa's are a must

Use 1/32 Jigs, Tubes either black/chartreuse, pumpkin/chartreuse with a jig spinner. slow retrival.
Fish hard. Fish often. Be patient. Do your homework. Research waters. Don't be afraid to look deep. SET THE HOOK!
Throw a wax worm on a size 12 hook
small jigs orange chartreuse yellow gulp alive bounce the bottom drop offs edges no float
Spend as much time; money; effort; on BGs as most folks do on LMBs. You will be rewarded with MONSTERS!
Can't catch them if they ain't there. Fish waters that have big fish to catch big fish.
