Your 3 pt does float, many of us wish we could have an option to prevent it or control down pressure but that is only available on much larger machines.
What I think you are experiencing is when your front end rises over the mounds it's making the blade angle more aggressive, that's why it's digging in.
You will need to manually adjust the blade height to compensate.
Rear blades are difficult to use and require some serious seat time to get efficient with, as you are now learning. Get a box blade they are much more forgiving and easier to use.
The only thing I do with my rear blade is clear snow from hard surfaces. The few times I tried doing dirt work I made a mess, put the box blade on and all was good.
