For a jig stick I would personally go with the heavier line. If the jigs are working the fish usually aren't line shy.
If you are worried about your joiner knot going thru the guides use a short leader, 4-5' that always stays out of the guides. You will be surprised how long a 100 yard spool of leader will last you!
I now use this technique even for fly lining bait. If it makes a difference I really have not noticed. Bait selection and movement seem much more important.
Tight lines.
