Snoods not clipped down
This rig is designed to be cast with both hooks clipped into bait clips on the bodyline. Without the clips, the snoods flap in flight, rob 10 to 20 yards from your cast, and tangle on the cast. Always use bait clips.
Unequal snoods
If one snood is longer than the other, the lower hook ends up below the strike zone and the upper hook is in the surface foam. Cut them to the same length when you build the rig.
Junction too far above the lead
If the junction is more than 30 cm above the lead, the snoods fold up the bodyline in flight and you have a tangle. Keep the junction tight to the lead clip, with both snoods short enough to clip in to the bodyline above the junction.
Too heavy bait
This is a distance rig. Hanging a whole squid off each snood kills the cast and tangles the rig on landing. Compact, well-wrapped baits only.
