Default Dry hop problem

I have a beer that has been in a secondary for 2 weeks now. Its dry hopped with about an ounce and a half of cascade hops. Most of the hops has dropped out of suspension. Problem is there is still a small amount in suspension. Any reccomendations on how to cure this. Its a really light colored beer and I would like for it to be nice and clear. thanks for the help. I bottle my beer if that matters.

I was thinking I could move it to another fermenter to see if that helps but I'd rather not move it again.

you can put a hop sock over your racking cane when you transfer to the bottling bucket.

I'd suggest cold-crashing if you've got the space in a fridge. Otherwise consider some gelatin finings.

What kind of hops are you using? Just put a hop bag over your racking cane if there isn't too much in there.

Edit: Didn't see wscott's post. LOL.
