I prefer to fish with light gear, as it is a bit more of a challenge. I am also cheap, so I don't like to spend a whole lot on specialized gear. I fish mainly with a 2 piece 6 foot light weight rod and either 4 or 6 pound line. with a size 0/2 or 0/3 hooks.
I am a bank fisher and prefer WB under a bobber, as it seems to keep the mud cats off the hook. With my set up, I can easily fish for WB as well.
I tend to fish solo as well, without a net, so landing them can be entertaining. The lip grippers are great, but solo, it is always an adventure.
This year, I am thinking I will try some fligs, using a slow retrieve back to shore, particularly on slower days so more water can be covered. Generally my casts are within 20 feet of shore in the different areas I fish.
My goal this year is to put three decent fish on the board. 27+
