Hi you really need to get to lighter line period. That's the whole point of ultra light is to use light equipment. Get you some 2lb vicious hi vis yellow spool it on the reel (no leader needed) use1/32 or 1/16 oz. weedless jig head with 2" curl tail grub. Throw it out let it go to the bottom and slowly bring it back be sure to have your drag on reel set so you don't break the line when your fighting your fish in that's where the fun comes in with ultra light. Try this you will love it. Heres the last crappi I caught using this type of set up.
