Default Plast Work Rigging

Hi,

Thanks for help on how to spool a spinning reel.

New at this, so can I please ask another dumb question:

I've seen all the links showing how to rig plastic baits using those
hooks with the small offset or bend near the eye.
Fine, anxious to try it.

But, I have also seen hooks, presumably for the plastic worms too, that
have a small piece of barbed wire hanging from the eye.

I cannot find any pix or how-to's on the web showing the rigging of
these. Not even the Mr.Twister or the Lunker City sites seem to have.
Surprising.

I presume that this is meant to be threaded into the nose of the plastic
worm. Right ?

Is the rest of the rigging of the hook into the bait the same as
for the "regular" plastic bait hooks I initially described ?

Do these, I think they are called "Keeper Worm Hooks", offer any
advantage ? Or, should I just stick with the regular kind with just the
small bend near the eye ?

Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
I will be doing small and largemouth bass fishing in New England (small
stuff).

Thanks,
Bob
