    I like to use a double rig set up under a slip float. A 1/8th ounce jig on top and a #4 hook below gives me castability and versatility from the bank. This is what it looks like in an aquarium.

    Those are called casting bubbles. I have some small ones made my Eagle Claw. They great for fishing clear water. Like stated you add water to them to add weight. You use them more to add casting weight than as a bobber.

    I use a lot of the Gulp minnows, but in the 2.5 inch size. They are my number 1 choice.

    What distance do you place the lures apart?

    I've been experimenting with the jig under float myself. Using a weight float. Crappie Ciller has been telling me to get slip bobbers so I can adjust depth easily and have the best castability and I need to get some. From the sounds of it, it's the way yo go for sure.

    For me, the best way to use a jig under a cork is not to use a jig under a cork. If I'm moving a bait through the water, I don't want it under a float of any kind. YMMV
