Thanks for the info. on jigging [cool]
Hopefully, if everything works out, I'll have an opportunity to learn from the legendary TubeDude this spring.
I used to jig the south fork of the snake, but there is was just a cast upstream, retrieve slack in line, and bounce the jig down, setting the hook each time the jig stopped. Very similar to steelhead fishing. Lots of snags in those waters, and lots of lost jigs and spoons, but also lots of nice fishies. Never had the opprotunity to jig open or still water, though, so I appreciate the techniques you detailed.
