Multiple options are available. One is to purchase a devise that bolts to your lower unit. It has a flap you manually move down to control the prop's back wash. It can be purchase through Cabela's.

The old commercial bay crabbers pull 5 gallon buckets, I would suggest the draft sock over that since you can adjust the opening on the socks.

In my Montauk, shifting weight to the stern slows me down a few notches.
