I don't think its necessary to attempt putting a doubled line thru the eye of the hook, or even using a double line thru the hook.
I run the line thru the eye once, then pull thru a long tag end, wrap that around a couple fingers, and then run the jig thru the loop you just made 3 times. Adjust the loop down to the right size and then trim the tag end. For a double jig setup make a longer tag end for the top jig and then tie the bottom jig on the same way. There are numerous you tube videos also, including a Richard Gene.
Best place to practice and do all that is at home. I saw someone using about 1" slices of pool noodle foam for wrapping the finished rigs on, so thats how i keep them, and then store them in a fairly large size plastic food container. A Wall Mart electric knife does a great job slicing up the pool noodle and fileting all the fish you will no doubt catch.
