Maybe he can chime in and show some pics of his jigs...
Have you tried the "stinger" type plastics with this technique? I would think they might also work. I have not tried them exactly with that method but have had luck just casting and let them fall plus vertical jigging with them sitting still and just slight movement every once in while.
On the OP's question about color, it depends on amount of stain in the water for me. I love that Junebug color when it is slightly stained. I go to lighter colors if it is clear. I have been having luck lately with a pink bodied jig and chartreuse tail. I heard someone say one time that any color works as long as it is chartreuse.
