Plum tree water sprats

I have a handful  of Water sprats developing on my plum tree. 
Do I prune them off as they develope. Or prune them off during next year's pruning

    I would shorten them to three buds now. That way they’ll develop fruiting spurs. 

    Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
