The further back up the slope, the deeper it digs and wider it swings. The height of the loop also can change the angle of pull and have a similar effect.
I like them low, flat, and just about even with the brow (subdued action shallow water), but haven't experimented all that much.

Moving the loop, or tweaking it to get it centered can salvage a bad plug. You gotta epoxy it to keep it centered. If you need to free it, heat it with a soldering iron and the epoxy will soften.
Don't use grommets, the loop will twist and roll out follow.
