Dippin around pads and structure. You can cover a lot of area where they are. Tried the trolling, really boring for me. Never really used a slip cork before, till I got to florida. Dippin with one of those gives you something active to do. If you have never tried to put your bait in an opening 3" between pads, 12' away from the boat, it is something to sharpen your skills.
A bonus is that you never know what your gonna get. It most likely will be a crappie, but have caught huge shellcracker, big bass and even channel cat.
