The only time I'd ever run a teaser with a jig, is when small fish are keyed on small baits. Guys do it in late summer and in reality, the jig is just a casting weight for the teaser. A 2-3 oz bank sinker would serve the same purpose--for less money. You cast and retrieve instead of bouncing the jig, as you only want the teaser running a few feet below the top.

If you jig with a teaser deep, the only thing the teaser's gonna do is wrap around the main line (maybe causing a bluefish to hit it and cut you off) and cut down your cast.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
