I've never tried this, but I've seen people put jigs under a float to keep it above the weeds.

I assume from your name, your down south.

Two different grass issues you deal with..

Matted/thick grass. If you're chasing reds in this, weedless spoon or one of the bass floating frogs will take care of that.

Floating grass. If you're drift fishing and that's your issue, mostly it's up to you to cast in the alley, and even then you'll lose half your attempts. Best advice is single hooks with a smooth jig head (oldhams) and paying careful attention to keeping your bait in the proper depth between bottom grass and floating grass.

Will inshore fish go for "froggy" lures?
