I recently used a double vmc 0-ring on a berkly general and the rings were so tight that after a 1/2 hr of casting it with no fish caught the worm split in two. First time that has ever happened to me, i put the circle hook through the rings only.

I use surgical tubing I buy from Amazon.  they sell it yard by yard.

 

one yard is a lot if you dont drop sections overboard by accident.  I use a weedless hook.  the MotoHook in 1/0.  I ordered some #1 size and they might be better,  but I havent used them yet.  the guy that ties the weedless thing is a friend that is about to retire from the side hustle.  he promised to teach it to me so I can make them for myself.  he'll give me all the stuff to.  I hope.  I'll buy it from him.

 

it is a GREAT hook.
