Instead of letting plug hit the water like a missle stop the cast short by fingering the line so it lands flat. Start cranking immediately and you can fish sinkers in shallow water. And keep the tip as high as possible. If you tick bottom, just find a speed that keeps you off the bottom. One last tip- fish heavy braid- it will allow you to pull free of most snags, even if you do wreck a hook. Except pots, boulders, and the like. NO weeds are 50lb. strong!
