Too bad you can't find Owner Yuki-Bugs anymore. They have an air pocket in the tail that will float the whole bait if it's weightless.
When they were on a clearance, I bought about 46 packs of the yuki and worm.

Great bait on a Kriet Squirrel shaky head and and also a MOJO rig.

The bottom is muck here and this will definitely float HIGH above the bottom. ( light wire hooks work best)

I might be the only person down in the Swamps that uses them.

Tornado HAG , a ringed worm, will also float straight up. Another "sleeper" winner!
