I have just enough experience to be dangerous, but I will share what little knowledge I have.
I drop my tube jig to the bottom and then raised it only a couple inches and placed my rod on my Jigging Totter rod holder [url "http://www.jiggertotter.webs.com/"]Link to Jigging Totter website[/url].
I found these rod holders work great, because with the slightest bite from a fish the rod moves, and unless a fish moves it several inches, it likely doesn't feel any resistance. Every few minutes I will reach over and give the rod a couple jigs (not necessary to remove the rod from the rod holder) and then let it just set for awhile. Almost every fish hit right after I jigged the rod. At that point I grabbed the rod and tried to hook the fish. Often, they will hit multiple times. If you have any further questions please feel free to PM me.
I have fished with others who actively jigged their rods at Fish Lake and did well, so feel free to experiment.
