I've been using jigging spoons for the past 15 years.
To get the hang of it, go someplace like the north channel and
jig the drop-offs along the channel edges. Use a medium heavy 5.5 foot rod with a baitcaster.
The action that you impart should be quick snaps with the rod tip, then follow the bait back down with your rod tip until the bait hits the bottom and repeat the process.
The key here is to keep your line verticle just like you would if you were jigging for walleye in the Detoit River.
I rarely jig in the lake,mostly in current area's but might have to give it a try next year.
Good Luck
