I've had plenty of success with it, especially in areas where the fish are feeding on top rather than bottom--especially anytime you follow the birds. I find that it doesn't matter whether the cork is weighted, so I don't have a weighted one. I always have a cork with somewhere between 1.5 and 2.5 feet underneath. I use a steel leader, so that's the only extra weight underneath the cork other than a 1/4 or 3/8 oz jig head. With that, I use plastic, and pop it constantly. At least a pop every three seconds.
