google glass minnow trap - you can make one by finding the largest glass mason jar you can find and simple drilling the appropriate sized holes in the lid. You could also try using a small mesh (1/4" cloverleaf trap but most folks around here have better luck catching fry and minnow size fish with the glass traps.

How many fish are you looking to get? Trott lining 10-20" fish might be the easiest way to get numbers of fish with the least amount of effort
