My computer screen keeps shutting off so I just posted the pic of the rigging real quick and will do the rest from the cellphone
The riggin is really pretty simple. I use power pro line, a bobber stop, a bead, a 4" slip dink float, another bead, a swivel, hole punched lead, 18" of leader, and the jig. There are 2 things I am VERY anal about when jig fishing.
1: keeping my jig riding parallel to the bottom. You can adjust this simply by moving the knot on the eye of the hook. I prefer a tight palomar knot. It is the best I have found to hold the jig in place.
2: keeping an absolute drag free drift. I am constantly letting out line, reeling in line and mending. This is were a rod that is 10' 6"+ will help.
There are many ways to rig jigs but this is what I use 90% of the time. You can run a longer leader and different floats as well. In the summertime when the water is low and clear I will use a round cork float or a steelhead stalker with a split shot right below the float. I will also color the last 10' or so of my line black with a sharpie. (If I'm using hi-vis line)
I rarely use bait added to my jigs but it does work. If anything its just a small piece of prawn.
