Spook help

I am working on a big spook it is 1 1/2 at the widest point and 7" long. It weighs 2.5 oz. I would like it to glide better. I got the body shape by increasing a spook that I liked and increased it by 40%. I put a belly weight and a tail weight. I was testing it, it has anice porpoise action ( goes down and pops up hrough the surface). If I change out one or more of the trebles to undressed singles will the plug glide better wit the reduction of drag from the trebles? I was also thinking about reducing the width of the plug along the entire length of he plug. I know its a confusing set of questions. But it boils down to this how do I improve the glide of a spook? Thanks charlie
