I generally save my jig fishing for cleaner flows personally, I do like to have the opportunity to yank fish out of some of the deep slow stuff that you can't get at in other ways.

Typically, I fish 1/4 oz. jigs most of the time myself. Genrally, you'll want to be within a foot of bottom, but in really deep water, they'll soemtimes suspend, so experiment some there.

A small hunk of prawn added seemed to out fish no bait about 2 to 1 for me when I did it side by side.

In the Beau-Mac Gammy-bous ... I liked the pink / white and cerise / black myself
