May not be of use for you but I know spotlight stores used to sell a party pack for balloons with a use once only cylinder. only small but will do for about 20 odd party size or maybe a couple of monsters. Good for the price $20.00 or so.
I have used helium, it can be very effective and can make a bait skip across the water in a very realistic way. a big gust can pick the bait up and drag it across the water just like you want it to.
I have also used party balloons and they work great as well, my prefferred method is to simply tie the balloons on with light line or cotton, a decent strike will pop it for sure.
I usually use about four party size for one rig, sometimes they pop on the way out, that way there will always be at least one left.
Also I always use wire leader....hope this helps, ballooning is addictive.....good luck and let us know !

You can fly your bait out
You can fly your bait out and then release the balloon with another line or shot it down with a shot gun. Just don’t do it on metro beaches.

You can also hire Helium
You can also hire Helium bottles at party hire stores. Various sizes just call around.
