Vern, I did a little pond fishing when was living in Ky. I always went with Berkley Gulp and a small jig head with a slip float, to start out with. The Gulp I would try, would be Corn Gulp, Maggots, Nightcrawler. It come in various colors too! After I got a feel for the pond, I would try small crankbaits and roadrunners, beetle spins. Good luck!

I switch between waxworms and pieces of nightcrawler with a splitshot---Either dangled 2-3 feet under a small bobber.....or drug along the bottom if there isn't a whole lot to get hung up on. I'm constantly moving. I count to 20 or 30....if no hits, I move.

I like to fish an 1/8 oz rfs tipped with a crawler hunk. Has produced well at the ponds I fish on shore with. Has enough weight to cast out. Try tipping with 2 char. gulp maggots for crappie.

Hi LaVern, I do quite a bit of shoreline fishing also, in areas that are known as "tough" on Bluegill (and others!).After much experimentation, nothing produces better than a slow sinking,quivering microspoon with a waxworm tipping. These little weighted willow blades are about an inch long,weigh around 1/32 oz, and come in outstanding bright color combinations (<a href="http://www.microspoons.com">www.microspoons.com</a>).

Soon the company will also expand their "elite" model series spoon ,which features a tiny propeller up front of the rocking spoon -in recent days even the hidden hot summer panfish have had trouble resisting these spinner/spoon combos!!

Vern, I always entertain a spoon in any fishing scenario....I would throw a 1/16 or 1/10oz spoon tipped with a crawler chunk.
