For your situation I would start out with a good ole’ nightcrawler. You could also try minnows which might get you some fish too. Good luck fishin’!
P.S.
What college do you go to? I ask this because there is a college near where I live that has all those type of fish you named. Just wondering. Again good luck!
Live minnows or shiners.
Live minnows, shiners, or shad.
Try flylinging the live minners.
I can help you some with the northern pike baits. From my experience, any large lure that is moved at a good speed will attract pike to your bait. However, you mention you would like to bobber fish. For that, I would get very large minnows and see if that would work. I bet you could cast lures and catch as many fish though.
Good luck.
