If you want to try it, I'd suggest using a small finesse weight, a Carolina keeper and a Northland Gumdrop floating jighead tipped with a minnow.
These finesse weights are skinny and don't snag as bad as some do. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/st...=SearchResults
The Carolina keeper is nice because you can change the length of your leader easily by squeezing it with a pair of pliers and then just slide it wherever you want it. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/st...L&cmid=PP_P1_2
These jigheads are great. Northland also makes some that are round if you prefer that style. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/st...=SearchResults
