If I'm fishing in water with more weeds and stickups I like to cut that small piece of tubing, slip it over the eye of the trailer hook and then push the main lure hook point through both the tubing and the eye of the trailer hook at the same time. This will let the trailer hook ride straight and almost on an even keel with the main hook, kinda stays put. The first method allows the hook to slide and move which gets hung up quicker.
DJD, that way of rigging is a good idea. I will try that.
