I found on mine last year that the head rides pretty low in the water so it sometimes takes it a minute to get it going so I usually rip upwards right aways and crank really fast to get it moving. But I do like the sound of it.

I put three in the bag last fall when they came out. They cast like a bullet, work well slow or fast, make a deep throaty racket and run very true. They have the stickiest/sharpest hooks (Gamagatsu Kamikaze) I have ever found stock on a lure out of the box. I religously sharpen every new lure and these were the first I recall not needing it...

I have not had that issue at all. I have considered adding some shrink tubing on the rear hook to get it to stick out further for short biters which would for sure fix that issue if it was happening but I can not recall having a noticable issue with it.
