I also noticed this and a smaller(lighter) hook like a #4, 6, 8 baitholder(thinking eggs) and a little bit bigger chunk of bait will grab more current, keeping it downstream. But this only works depending on the currents. If the water is faster on top than bottom then you have to slow the drift a bit. Also slide your weights up a bit more and use a slightly thicker leader which will leave more line below the weights catching more current and pushing your bait downstream.
