Default weed in the water

I like fishing with live bait, but every time i cast a live shiner in the water the shiner always tangle with weeds in the bottom of the water ( fish not going to see the bait, right?). how to fish in the weedy water, anyone ? James

Use a bobber and suspend the shiner above the weeds.

I suggest a light pop-up bobber with a low drag.

They aren't the round platic balls.

They are long sticks with a tubular styrafoam around half to 2/3 of the length of the stick.
Some use a "spring" to attch the line.

They will normally lie flat on the water. When you get "hits" they will Pop-Up or Tip-Upand
go verticle. When the fish takes the bait they will Pop-Up or Tip-Up and they go under the
water. Being long and thin rather than round and wide makes them more streamllined and the
fish feels them less.

Tight Lines !
