FF,

I wouldn't go lighter than 6# test line/leader. You may not need a bubble for your spinning outfit, but it's probably a good idea to have one along. I think a couple small, size BB split shot, will give you casting weight and achieve the shallow depth you'll generally fish near shorelines. While trolling works, I think cast and strip is more effective in imitating the way the shiners swim. You might do that by lifting your spinning rod tip a couple feet and then slowly reeling down to where you began the lift, sort of like fishing a jig.

The shiners have totally changed that fishery.
