In summer I use that rig all the time as I start using minnows again I tie a hook above the jig. I use a heavy jig as its weight and bait. I tie the hook on with a Palomar knot and just leave a really long tag, then I run that tag line back through the hook eye so that it stands out and then tie on jig. Should work for you as I have used this for years and done well. Actually usually I catch the bigger fish on the jig, but believe the minnow and smaller fish eating that minnow actually starts other to feed. Just my 2 cents!
