What's your go-to bait for panfish?

I accidently voted for backyard worms, but they work the same as night crawlers...but my fav would be wax worms. Those things have a waxy skin and panfishes will still bite them even after all their insides are gone. Plus, their cleaner the Night Crawlers, you dont have to mess with the soil all up on your hands.

The craziest bait i've caught a blue gill on is a chewed winter fresh gum. I decided to try it because they eat just about anything and I wanted to see if they will enjoy cleaning thier breath with winter fresh gum...well, they did!
