I like bluegills, rock bass, warmouth, and the smaller Largemouths that occasionally get on.

blurgills, which I then use for flathead catfish bait.       Happy fishing.

giant bluegills, little bass, crappies, perch and white bass. 
Walleye. Tight lines.

I enjoy catching smallies. Most of the time I take ultra light when floating down the river cause I usually catch perch and bluegill and normally get alot of smallies in the 12 inch range and that is a whole lot of fun. The big smallie was caught on ultralight and it took a few minutes to get him in, weighed a lil under 5lbs.

I like going after gills with the ultralight stuff. When you hook up with a good size gill on ultra light it's a real good fight.

the one on my hook is prolly the best answer here lol but mine is crappie and small large mouth, in fact i gotta go buy a new u/l rod today i broke mine friday evening pond fishin' "sigh"

may mother nature bless your line with every cast

My favorite ultralight fishin' is for good ole Black Crappie...I use a Okuma Celilo 6'6" spinner with a Cardinal ultra light reel and a Daiwa Megaforce 5'6" spinner with a South Bend ultralight reel with 6 and 4 lb test respectively. I use the 6 lb on the taller rod from taller docks that I might have to lift the fish up and out. The 4 lb on the latter for more horizontal casting. Sometimes ya get lucky and get a Largemouth on and the bigger the bass...the better your finesse skills and drag better be as well....I also like bluegill and redear fishin' on ultralights.
Real fishermen know when to CATCH and when to RELEASE...

While Sunfish are a fun on ultralight gear, it is hard to beat a small mouth bass.

I am going to have to tie them at 1st place.

You haven't lived until you catch a 25" Northern while fishing for Crappie with an ultralight spinning set up and 5#test Power Pro! SorryI don't have a picture, I left my camera at home that day, as I set out to fish Crappie and Bass at the neighborhood pond and didn't see the need! I will NOT make that mistake again.

Any fish on 4# is my favorite.  My best is a 12# drum from the bank, now that was a 45 minute contest.

I got to go with small mouth bass. Most of my fishing with ultra-lite equipment is for perch but when I get a 15 to 20" smallie on its a blast.

Here in western North Carolina the shellcrackers are averaging 1.7 lbs.  I caught a couple last season close to three pounds.  Since then they have been my favorite panfish.  I still love spawning gills though,  and redbreasts, man they strike like a snake! EDIT: Here is  a photo from last year on Lake Hickory.  These are common on this lake.

Can't beat the thrill of catching a bull gill with light line and tackle.

Love catching crappie, but nothing beats a 2-3 pound sand bass on ultralight rod&reel.
