If you want the plug to sit verticle in the water (tail down) you need more weight in the tail and less up front.
I'm wondering what kind of action you are after? The plug reminds me of gliders/jerkbaits that some friends down here use for musky. These baits sink real slow. You work them so they "glide" from side to side, sort of like a spook in slow motion, but subsurface. In this case, you want the weight right at the balance point of the plug.
