It seems to depend on the day, and also the time of day. Try both and see what they want best. I have caught them trolling slow with no jig movement and caught a ton, other days they required a ton of finesse. Yesterday they were following it in a ton, so we slowed down the reel speed and did a lot of small jigs before reaching shore to get them to commit. Also important is how long to let it sink. If they are hitting the surface a lot, then reeling right after casting is usually best, if not then waiting and getting closer to the bottom can be best, sometimes in between. There is not really 1 way to fish it every time and sometimes it takes a bit to figure out how they want it.
