Panfish Fishing
Types of Atlantic Saltwater Panfish
The term panfish describes small fish, many of which are caught by recreational anglers for food. They are named because they are small enough to be cooked whole in a pan. Popular saltwater panfish of the Atlantic Coast include croakers, spot, porgy, white perch and pigfish.
Atlantic Croaker or "hardhead" are popular panfish found along the Atlantic Coast. The fish get their names because of the "croaking" noise they make when removed from the water. Croakers are hard fighters and prolific feeders. They are caught on a variety of baits and lures. They are among the first fish to be caught in the spring and are caught over a wide range of habitats. Croaker can be caught from piers, jetties, inlets, in bays and from the surf.
Croaker baits include shrimp, crabs, squid, cut fish, bloodworms and more. In addition to cut baits, croaker are caught on a variety of jigs and other saltwater lures. They can also be caught in the shallows and grass beds using fly fishing gear.
Spot can be identified by the distinctive dark spot above the pectoral fin. The species is also known as lafayette, goody, or Norfolk spot. Spot are common from Cape Cod to Florida and through the Gulf of Mexico. These panfish are abundant in near-shore oceanic areas, coastal bays, and estuaries.
White perch are small but tenacious fish that live along the Atlantic Coast of North America in brackish waters such as rivers, creeks and bays. White perch prefer brackish water but can live in environments that range from fresh water to fully saltwater. These hardy panfish are caught with small baits such as grass shrimp or bloodworms, or by casting artificial lures or flies. Perch can be caught year round, even thru ice. They school up to spawn in early spring and can be caught in large numbers.
Scup, also known as porgy are another saltwater panfish. They range from New England to North Carolina. Adult scup feed in schools of similar-sized individuals around piers,
rocks, offshore ledges, jetties, and mussel beds. They move inshore in summer but return to deeper waters offshore or migrate southward when temperatures cool. Large scup generally occur farther offshore than do smaller, younger ones.
Pigfish are colorful members of the grunt family. They are marked with a bluish upper and a silver lower body, with a series of attractive stripes on the sides and bands on the snout and head. The species ranges from Massachusetts through the Gulf of Mexico. They are easily caught around piers, reefs and rough bottoms using small pieces of bait such as bloodworms, crab, squid or shrimp.

How much line should be between the bobber and hook when (freshwater)fishing from the shore for small panfish?
Just fishing from the shore of a lake with cheap rods with reels and 10 lbs. test line, and worms.
You should ajust your boober about 6 inches to start, than fish awhile if the fish are not biteing, ajust another 6 inch lower, when you start getting bites and catching some fish you know you have your bobber just right, now dont forget fish might be biteing at that dept for only a short time, eigher keep moveing your boober to lover your bait or maybe just moveing to a better place to fish on shore.
Good Fishin.
