This is an excellent question which I hope one of the new spin-jigging canal gurus will answer. The ability to drop back a jig seems to me to be crucial to fish different structure and maintain depth longer during a retrieve. Is it, in fact, over-rated and all you really need is a rising semicircular sweep/retrieve once you pick up your jig. Or do you open and close the bail several times? How do you stay in touch as it drops back?
