I've had pretty good luck on surface-feeding bass on priest. A 1.5" shad body in white on a 1/8 oz jighead works well if I burn it on the surface. It usually gets plastered when it starts to create a wake, and that usually gets the school excited. I've had the best luck midday wherever fish are suspended 10' or less or are going thru bait balls.
I've also used a Zoom Tiny Fluke in baitfish color tied onto the rear hook of a popper on an 18-24 inch leader...the popping gets the attention and the tiny fluke seals the deal.
