Still water, if it's a rocky bottom I like to simply jig them slowly.
If it's weedy, I'll use a float to keep it above them.
Drift boat on the river, I like cast and twitch them as we drift along.
Can do the same thing from the bank or run a sliding float to make quick depth adjustments...
I caught some pretty nice browns on an eastern Oregon stream while jigging for small mouth bass.
I was quite surprised at the first one to hit!
I use 3/8 and 1/2 oz jigs to twitch for coho salmon...they hate them!
