Who Wins

Pre-6, Jinx+Blitzcrank wins this lane convincingly: Blitzcrank's hook threat neutralizes your W range advantage because you must stay far back, and Jinx's early DPS trades evenly or better before your W is online with items.
Post-6 you gain meaningful poke power with W+R, but you remain extremely vulnerable to a single hook, so the lane is winnable only if Blitzcrank misses.

Your best trading pattern is to activate W and auto-attack from maximum range while Seraphine's E slow keeps enemies in place, never stepping inside Blitzcrank's hook range to do so.
If Blitzcrank is baiting with a forward position, do not extend W range to reach him — the hook trade is never worth it for you given your immobility.

You want a slow push into a freeze-break dynamic: let Seraphine help build a large wave, crash it, then reset or play safe under tower.
Avoid being caught in the open river-side of the lane where Blitzcrank has unobstructed hook angles with no minion body-blocking.

Never use W to walk forward into hook range thinking your range advantage protects you — Blitzcrank's Q travels faster than you can react and your mobility is near zero.
One successful hook on you at any point in the laning phase is likely a kill, so your positioning discipline is the single most important factor in this matchup.
