for a bucktail i like to just reel in slowly after letting the jig fall to or near the bottom. as i reel in i like to give the jig a little bit of a twich with the rod tip. i dont really think you are meant to work a bucktail like a jig by jigging it. just realling it in seems to work fine. in really strong current (strong as in don't even think about wading) i just cast and allow the jig to be carried out by the current. i became familiar with this method one day when my friend cast out his jig and then put his rod down to take a picture of a fish i just caught. as he was taking the camera out of his pocket his rod was pulled across the rocks we were fishing on and directly into the water. after that i just let the jig go with the current and began catching fish.
