I primarily float fish for steelhead nowadays and use a wide variety of offerings under my float. My favorite method is jigs. Look at steelheadstalker jigs from this site, I caught a lot on his micro jigs before I started tying my own. Eggs also work good depending on the day, get some Ez eggs if you run low on the real deal. Pink worms, yarnballs, nightcrawlers (work well in the spring), cured shrimp also are good items to have in your tackle box.
