I would recommend using a 1/4 oz slip weight, swivel and then like 5 feet of light leader with a size 6 or 8 hook and make sure you have enough power bait on to float it. If they are on top, throw a bobber on just above the weight and using sinking bait like a worm, eggs or 'gulp' corn.

6/14/2012 1:46:00 PMI've thought about bobber fishing with Gulp maggots or pinched earthworms, but it seems like all the spots I've tried(Silver lake, lake ballinger, and Martha) have their public access predominantly facing west into the wind so the bobber just blows right back at you. I tied up some longer single hook leaders last night and I'll go back tomorrow and try it again.
