i think the problem with this is that the hook doesnt actually slide up and down the loop. becuase the line is supple the line bends and moves freely. in my tests of the method it worked best tieing two loops.the top one has the hook on, and the bottom one has a shot about the size of a bb.this keep the line tighter and lets the hook slide up and down.

i think this mehtod has its day like any other but i would much more prefere to have a sensitive well shotted and well precented rig over this.
