In light winds I add the yankee and pole it out to weather. No main at all.
In moderate winds I use main and poled ... http://www.forespar.com/pdf/F6-Whisk...ing-Jibing.pdf). For jibs smaller than 100% I wouldn't go much less than 'J' for the pole length.

At the moment i get a
jib 105% with LP 680cm and foot 770cm and my
budget can't
permit me to buy bigger one ; i'm questioning with my
sailmaker because he said me that whisker pole must be no more than LP but reading you and the sizing of forespar i got it must be the foot of
jib.
You're expert sailors and i need your point of view
