I forgot to mention in my previous post, I never use sinkers when Panfishing. Lets look at this with logic. As I mentioned before, fish inhale the bait and if they feel resistance they just "blow" it out. If you use a sinker it puts a disconnect between you and the "bite". If the fish are biting like crazy it doesn't matter what you have on but if the bite is "off" or "light" you don't want anything between you and the fish.

I didn't know if I should post on my original or make a new Thread. What do you guys think?:confused:

That's why guys use tear drops, small jigs etc. Nothing between the hook and you.

I use sinkers..they have never cost me any fish because I use a very sensitive spring bobber. It is so sensitive that it gets pulled down if my minnow is swimming down there. Also I doubt a fish can feel resistance of a tiny spring so I doubt it matters.
