Sharing a little trick I have used and seen other Captain's also using. It simply involves using fish hose air line or surgical tubing that can be bought fairly inexpensively. Cut a small piece of the tube and slip over the eyelet of the hook you want to use as a trailer/stinger. Slide the jig hook through the tubing/eyelet and slide down on to the bend area of the hook to position. I have yet to see a hook slide off or be bitten off this way. For the larger sized jigs you will need at least a 6/0 (Mustad or other brand) to slide over the hook barb. You can bend the barb down but I feel that impacts the effectiveness of the jig hook itself. This set up works well with larger size GULP, whole squid, fluke belly and salmon belly strips and even as individual bait holders(spearing, squid strips, etc)
