I was using a light rod with 6lb braid, snap swivel on the end of the line. 3 foot trace of 6lb mono to a small, size 6, log shank hook with a split shot around 6 inches up from the hook. Had a swivel on the end of the trace that went onto the snap swivel. Hung a small float, little red & white plastic thing that they give away with kids rods, off the snap swivel. Bait was white bread which I squished up around the hook being sure to leave the hook tip exposed. Before heading out I also turned a few slices into breadcrumbs using the wife's blender and threw handfuls of that out for berley. Make sure that the bread is fresh otherwise you can not make it doughy enough to stay on the hook. Late afternoon yesterday that set up caught 10 good size Mullet in around 1 1/2 hours with the bigger ones being quite fun to catch on the real light set up.
Good luck :-)
