Set them up as either slow sinkers or barely floaters. Either way, have them sit level in the water. If the nose is up a hair, they'll still work, but not glide as well. Nose down and they'll dig in and not glide. The weighing of these plugs is the key. It is definitely worth taking the time to weigh each one before painting to insure that it will work right. Been messing with them too. In the last few weeks, I've probably done 30 as tests: different woods, thickness, profiles, weight locations, etc. Also was lucky in that a friend of mine makes them so I had someone to bounce ideas off too. Different woods and different profiles, and different thickness means different locations/amount of lead. My 2 cents.
