Tackle?

[bigtattoo79]

A few years back I had health issues and had to sell my boat and all my fishing gear. Now that my health is improving and my son is showing a huge interest to get into fishing on a regular basis it’s time to gear up. I won’t have a boat again for a while but we are making the best outta it by hitting the banks of the bayous and any public ponds. We’ve found one spot that has tons of small panfish, while we really wanna catch crappie in my areas it’s normally just mixed panfish.

With all that said we went pickup some tackle and hit the banks. To keep things simple I just went with the basics IMO:

Rig 1) cork, split shot, hook and live worm.
Rig 2) cork, jig head and tube jig.

My question is, should we stick with this for now and beat the banks OR is there any new latest greatest panfish lures I should run out and get?
