When pulling spinner rigs, I don't really think pinning the back hook matters one way or the other, as there is nothing to natural about pulling a worm on a harness, in fact I have never even seen a nighcrawler in the water.
I do pump the rod when pulling bouncers, but not constantly, so even with leeches and minnows, the action is not to natural, but what I do know is, spinner rigs work really well, almost any way you fish them. The only exception might be if you are pulling smiley blades or spin-n-glows, as they can be worked (will spin) at about the same speed as lindy rigging.
