search way back for an old cowlitzfisherman post on techniques for jiggin for silvers.....it had good pics and techniques......

start with a 1/2oz head if you cant swim the 1/4 oz heads right or havent learned the feel.......... i give it what i call the "puf puff give" or in other words the "twitch twitch pause" with only lifting the tip of a 9'6" a few inches........sometimes you have to change up the speed or depth to re-entice........also swim them right up to the boat as oftent he coho will follow and grab it right in front of you
