Why would ya troll and why would ya jig?
Well, because they are two effective techniques.
I do find it interesting that they are often compared.
To me, comparing vertical presentations to horizontal presentations is like comparing helicopters to cars. Two totally different creatures.
Trolling has aspects about it that make it effective as does jigging.
To answer your question, you would troll because sometimes trolling has triggering qualities that will get you more fish than jigging, and you jig becasue sometimes it takes a slower more delicate presentation to get the strike.
In my opinion you use bolth, each in thier respective situations if you want to have the most success.
