I am no expert on Jordanelle nor on drop shotting. I like to fish senkos "wacky style" which is weightless, hooked in the center so that each side hangs down below the hook in an upside down 'U' shape. It slowly flutters down to the bottom and drives bass mad. That might not work that well at Jordanelle, simply because you will snag a lot, but it works FANTASTIC at Deer Creek.
I believe most drop shotters using senkos will nose hook them. You really don't need to cake on the garlic and salt. Many senko type stickbaits are impregnated with salt already, or scented, and then they are not so smelly on your hands. Even non-scented ones work well most of the time.
I'm sure the bigger bass are hanging out deeper this time of year to escape the higher water temperatures in the shallows. The small ones hang out in the shallows to avoid becoming dinner to the big ones, lol.
Rock Cliff is the arm of Jordanelle where the Provo River enters, yes, on the side of the road to Kamas.
Hope that helps.
