One more thing you might want to consider is when you use a baitcaster for such a light bait, the bait sinks towards you at a faster trajectory and depending on depth fo the water, it might just end up at your feet. the spinning set up will allow it to sink straight down (or as close to it as possible considering everything else).
I have/had a pixy and a presso baitcaster that were able to throw fly lined 4.5" roboworms with a LOT of thumb control, but i definitely didnt look forward to doing that all day! save yourself the trouble..
