Something like this?

If the position of the fly and bubble are reversed it will work better; the float at the far end. A weighted nymph on a 1 mtr dropper instead of a dry works on lakes. Fill the float with as much water as it will take and not sink. Cast out and draw back so that the nymph rises towards the surface ( just like a real nymph does) then pause to let the nymph sink and then draw in again. Tie the nymph dropper 1.5 mtr above the float

Remember me to your children and grandchildren when no one else but your family are catching fish.
