A system for controlling the operation of a work vehicle implement during an implement shake operation may include an implement configured to pivotably coupled to a loader arm. A controller may be configured to monitor an angle of the implement relative to the arm during the implement shake operation. Furthermore, the controller may be configured to determine first and second differentials between monitored angles of the implement during first and second cycles of the implement shake operation, respectively, and a predetermined average implement angle. Additionally, the controller may be configured to determine an estimated differential between an anticipated angle of the implement during a third cycle of the implement shake operation and the predetermined angle based on the first and second differentials. Furthermore, the controller may be configured to adjust a duty cycle and/or an amplitude of the third cycle of the implement shake operation based on the estimated differential.
