I just pitch them and retrive slowly. Keep the rod tip low to the water. And if you hang it up, just throw it soe slack. 99% of the time they will float out of the snag. We also remove the trebles and put a 4 bead bead chain on the belly eye and attach a 1/0 siwash to that. The siwash hooks in keeping the snags down. It also helps hook short striking fish, plus you land more with the single hook.
Also casting cross current and letting the plug swing across works well also. If the plug oesnt dive deep enough when its swing, just slowly reel it in.
I hope this helps.
