Honestly, run your bag below a float.. Here are a few reasons.
1. You won't be flossing (aka snagging fish)
2. It's adjustable, you can fish the upper water column for those active fish or the bottom for the not so active ones.
3. You can pop, jig and do pretty much impose any action you want on your bait.
4. You can switch it up easily, live worms, jigs with maggots, live minnows, etc etc.
