A fast retrieve on a test run of a proto is a good way to simulate the pull of a wave.I take alot of bass on the rising crest of a wave.its one of the coolest things to see plug wiggling an out of nowhere a dark presence appears to inhale its quarry.
If ur plug pops out on a fast retrieve U can mark it for flat water or figure out why an change it.More than likely if its poppin out the lip is down pushing water rather than up alowing the plug to dig. the plug may be to light or just improperly balanced.Sometimes a design change like a shaved head is all that is needed.Now if it swims good I might leave it. Wades pop out in the fast water because the cupped colorado type lip just don't let em dig but I caught alot of fish on em cause they swim like mad just lower ur rod to relieve the tension in a wave an u should be ok.In big water they stay in the truck.
Plugs are tools figure that no two are alike an use the right tool for the job.U wouldn't throw a 1oz needle in a big surf with a 25 mph cross wind.well u might but there would be better options
