I was using thise worm weights, and I had them entirely separate from
the fly so I could use a fly unweighted or heavily weighted.

A separate point you've probably already thought of is that you cut the
price of the flies in half by not including a hook. My experience up
north has me actually loosing only 2 or 3 flies a week, most of the
flies are just so battered I have to give up on them. Having the hook
separate lets me use more expensive hooks and get by on fewer of them.
