Lindy rigging with worms

[wales]

Not talking about bottom bouncing, but rather a 3/8 ounce sliding sinker with a 4 ft. snell & either drifting or slow with an electric trolling motor. How do you keep the nightcrawler from just dragging on the bottom?
Little shot of air to the worm? Use a colored small floater just above the worm? Some smart fishermen on here, what do you suggest?
thanx!!!

It doesn't drag it kinda bounces up and down depends on bottom. Realistically a bottom bouncer rig does the same thing. Your moving it tugging from above

Floating jig or maybe a 3 way rig might be what you want to get the desired hight

I like to use a small floater and a bead but it's not necessary like said above it bounces

If the bottom is clean, let it do it's thing. If the bottom is weedy or fowling rigs run a three way with a worm blower or a small floater.
