If you want the hemp to stay on the hook then try this way(it should be done on the comfort of your home and not on the bank as can be time consuming)
When you have cooked your hemp, separate some into a small container(now the fun bit).
Get a needle, pick up a piece of hemp, and push the needle through the flat end(bit where it would be on the plant), do this gently as you only need to make a small hole(there is a bit that will push out).
Once this is done, all you have to do come the day, put your hook through the hole, you can even catch a few fish on one piece.
Just be careful making the hole, i prefer to use a paper clip that has been straightened out as found this is better than a needle.
