Catching Sunfish in Open Water

    Catching sunfish in open water isn't that difficult if you
    can find the fish.  Once you find the schools of
    sunfish, you just need to have enough weight on your
    line to get down to 10 feet of water or more.  Some
    fish will be suspended in water as deep as 30 feet of
    water.  Slip bobbers work extremely well because
    they allow you to get your bait to the correct depth.  

    Vertical jigging with jigs and jigs tipped with live bait will produce some good results.  Other anglers prefer drifting in open water with live bait or jigs.  
    Drifting can be a good way to find active schools of sunfish.  Once you find them, drop anchor and keep your baits right above them.
