Hey Bloo another way to jig is what we call dragging. Same basic setup as you. Use the lightest jig you can get away with, on anchor up to 17 ozs. but we drift mostly and and use jigs to 35 ozs. Cast uptide and engage reel when it hits the bottom. I like to rest the jig on the bootom wiggle a few times and then jerk-up hard. when you don't feel the bottom just let out more line till it hits again and start over I'll do this four or five times then reel in. If the hard jerking doesn't work then I'll just drag it just bouncing the tip. I use any of my old plastics but two teasers that seem to work best are bucktails tied on a 5/0 mustad or a pink/white grub.If all fails or you want more haddock go to bait!
