I'm using a 1/4 ounce jighead and steady retrieving while twitching the rod tip to give it some action. They absolutely hammer it when they strike. It's not like a bass gently picking up a plastic worm!
I'd say every turn or two of the reel I'd quickly pick up the rod tip, that's the twitching speed. That could need to vary from day to day, let the fish tell you what they want. I've been there before and wasn't able to catch them on a weighted fluke so I tried weightless. I'd very very slowly reel it in while twitching a few times every 2 or 3 turns of the reel and that's what worked.
