I think you are not using NBitcoin library (https://github.com/MetacoSA/NBitcoin) instead you are using the example code. And in that example code according to the book (https://programmingblockchain.gitbooks.io/programmingblockchain/content/bitcoin_transfer/spend_your_coin.html) it is setting the fee amount to 0.0001BTC which means when you spend 0.0001BTC it deducts 0.0001 from your 0.0001 and is left with 0 so as a result it throws an exception

You need to debug the program yourself to make sure, I am mainly making assumptions based on what I see from the code and your explanation.

The code you are seeing in the example IS with fees! the variable called minerFee is the fee that you are paying and it is a fixed amount of 0.0001BTC.

Just change that line to anything you like, it can be a fixed amount or it can be a function taking the best amount of fee based on an API call such as this http://bitcoinfees.21.co/api

Or if you are doing it on top of a full node you can analyze the previous blocks to figure out the suitable fee.
