    I've been messing around with flies or very light jigs on spin gear with some success. There are more refined ways of doing it than a bubble float. Tungsten flies are heavy enough to cast with light gear and other flies work well under a slim float. I find it an enjoyable way of fishing. There's heaps of useful gear on AliExpress and our American friends are way ahead of us on this aspect of the sport (see YouTube). If a river (or lake) is open to spinning, I can't see a problem from a F&G standpoint.

    These have been my #1 fish catcher of late:
