Angry how to get rid of wheel hop?

Does anyone have any ideas how to get rid of the wheel hop in the front end?When out on the lake in 4x4,going through any hard spots the front end wheel hops unbelievibly bad,probably bad enough to break or twist something.I noticed this last year when I had to pull 2 Dodges out that were stuck on the lake.I was thinking either heavier shocks or adding 2 more shocks,I know this is because of the leaf spring frontend but it really is a problem.

You mean going through snow? Not much you can do except tires make a big difference. Wider is better..for flotation.
