Looking for PanFish reccomendations

Want to take the kids out this week (Spring Break) to catch some panfish. Size not important, numbers is. I am not that happy with the Folsom panfish output in the last couple of years, so any other ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Straight from the Gloryhole Sports Website

Crappie and bluegill: We have had the best crappie bite Melones has seen in years. Limits are common, and crappie are huge! Crappie can be found hanging out in submerged trees, especially near running water or adjacent to spawning areas (flat areas with lots of fall-down wood or gravelly bottoms), about 5-15 feet deep. Bear Creek, Mormon Creek and Carson Creek are all good bets. For crappie, try fishing live small or medium minnows, or crappie jigs with jigs in red/white, black/chartreuse or purple/white.

The Crappie are starting to go in Discovery Bay. Use Crappie jigs, small spinner lures or minnows. If you want to give me a call I will tell you where to find them. Alot of them go 13" or better.
