]Hey Jed, Lincoln beach is a very big place, lots of drops and rocks, jig eating rocks. It's for sure not the place to learn to jig unless you have a ton of jigs. I don't think there is a best way to jig, just let the fish tell you. try first with a fast moving bottom hopping action if nothing then slow down even to a slow crawl. try hopping it along with small to bigger hops. sometimes just let the jig set on the bottom and tighten up your line and shake your pole tip, (oops) one of my walleye secrets.
As for worm harness, I troll them on a 2 oz. bottom bouncer weight at .8 to 1.5 mph. some times heavier or lighter. always keep in touch with the bottom but not dragging.
hope this helps, later chuck
