The NEC code provides the option to use the meter base, service panel and conduit (raceway) in addition to the ground rod(s).

I prefer to go directly to ground... But I also like to avoid leading fault current into my house.

The clamp looks like it's the right type, but double check your mast diameter. Many J-poles are a bit larger than 1 1/4".
