I've been researching for awhile on what they eat and ether get the "it a carp" or just use worms. The pond is infested with bluegill(fun on the fly) so worms are out of the question. And goldfish seem to have tiny mouths so a traditional hair rig is out of the question. Any one have a idea on what they eat?

I catch goldfish using a hair rig (a really small one) and just a piece of floating plastic corn. No scents or anything else, and caught countless goldies with that technique. They even chase the plastic corn as you reel it in! Brickworks has tons of these goldfish
