Its a trout magnet grub with a couple little split shots and a bobber set a little over a foot from the hook. Been out maybe 5 times this summer and ain't caught squat haha. Was out today for like 2 hours, caught nothing…some dude rolls up and within minutes is catching sunnies (which is more or less what I am targeting). So my only conclusion is that I'm doing something wrong.

Use a crappie jig instead. I use a crappie jig with a bobber all the time.
I typically don’t use more than one bb sized weight if I’m using trout magnets on my UL. If I want to use a bobber I just use the EZ float they sell.
I don’t usually work them much if they don’t get bit on the cast. Just reel in and try again.
I’d try some live worms instead. I bet you’ll catch plenty.
Small jig (or no jig at all) and tip it with a worm/bait.
