I use a clear casting bubble and 1/64 hand tied jigs. Fill the casting float half full of water and you cast that micro jig along way. I just a popping motion to work the jig. You can even use a trout fly if you want your bait on the surface. Eagle Claw makes a 1 inch casting float while Southbend makes a 1 1/4 inch model. They work great for gills and crappie.
