I use a flutter hook on them instead of a jighead.......sinks flatter. I've never seen a shrimp swim straight up and down. They always stay flat

If you work it fast it does not have time to go up and down,more side to side action.

Can't go to fast with a beer in one hand and a thermometer in your mouth

1/8 and 1/4 depends on the tide and wind

Not sure it makes a difference other than looking pretty, a sharp hook does. 1/16, 1/8, and 1/4. Sometimes the lighter the jig the more strikes if they want a slower fall, but they don't cast as far. I try to cast them downwind anyway though.

IMO you really don't need a 1/4 under the cork, I don't think they bounce as high when you pop it.
