Definitely try one with more weight. Probably another 5-7 grams. Your's sounds more like it is set up as a surface swimmer.
They work well if they float level with the back just barely out of the water (the tail will be well below the surface). Your plug will swim fine, but it will not get as deep as one weighted more heavily, it will also require a faster retrieve to fight its buoyancy and stay down. Most importantly (I think) it will not suspend as well when you pause it......and that is when the plug gets hit the most often in my experience.
I've done little this week and am working this weekend :sad: so I've got little to offer this week.
