Way too complicated for me. I tie a crappie hook on my line with a loop knot leaving a foot of line below it. I slip on an egg sinker (1/2 to 1 oz) and crimp a small split shot on to hold the egg sinker in place. If the sinker snags, the split shot usually will slip off and free the line.
If I am using two hooks the first hook is a foot above the lower hook.
