The lighter the line the better the small jigs cast. You can still catch them with 6 lb . You can slide your jig on your line and tie an overhand loop with the jig forming a dropper loop. Leave the tag end long and put a split shot on the end. You only want 6" of tagline below the jig. You can cast micro's or nymphs pretty far this way. It's like dropshotting . Just jig it back letting the shot touch bottom. I don't have much luck with the bobber/jig combo . I like Berkley Crappie tubes or olive bead head nymphs.
