i just use a green or red bead or a tiny corky with a #4 or #6 hook, and a pencil lead setup like you're drift fishing for steelhead.  they'll hit that every bit as well as a shad dart or triple teazer, at a fraction of the cost(especially when fishing in an area as snaggy as up by bonneville dam).  cast and retrieve slowly.
