BTW gentlemen...I have recently bought a book called "Shiner Techniques" by Glen Hunter with Tim Tucker.  I am about halfway through with it,  and it is really interesting.  In it he talks of ways to catch wild shiners.  There are several ways, but the most interesting is with a ultralite and bread.  I'll have to try it someday.  If you are really interested in fishing with shiners in Florida then this is a book you should read,  I bought it over the internet and I think the cost was 10 bucks, but for a northerner who new nothing about bait fishing it has been pretty enlightning.  Thanks for all the help though, I will try some of the suggestions ;D ;D
