The Whites inhale it when the jig falls/drops and if you hit bottom occasionally I believe that's the trigger.
I tried the bobber thing numerous times, it's easier to cast out but for me not much success.
Yesterday, with the light south wind my float tube was drifting too fast. It was important to keep my presentation down & near the bottom, by casting out and holding my float tube in one position I was able to hook a number of them as well lost a few as they sure are quick.
Trust this helps.

Side note ... the largest one was a female with eggs developing the others were all males.
