The hook line? Why are you putting the hook on a separate line?

I don't use dropshot rigs regularly but I tried it with a separate hook
line. Like on a 3 way swivel. I thought it made sense to give the
plastic worm a free flow appearance. The hook line tangled with the
mainline so I abandoned the whole exercise. BTW the last thing I want
to do is snag a fish.
