I use the korda spinner swivels, balancing weights and a backwards kicker on the hook. I just crimp this to a stiff boom although you can just tie a loop. I have a load of hooks with beads, kickers and bait screws ready to go and just swap them when needed.

If you are using a stiff material like Boom or similar I've had no problem crimping the Ronnie clip on. The tungsten sleeve still passes over the crimp and clip.

As to which knot, much depends on the hook length material you are using.
If using 30lb amnesia for the boom then I use a 3-4 turn blood knot as it slides together easier.
You have to adapt to what hooklength material you want to use. A couple of pullers and give it some welly.
If the little vein in your forehead isn't throbbing then you are not really trying

I have just checked and I think this is a 3 turn grinner. Nice and neat.

Use the esp ones, but make a little loop of very heavy shockie braid to loop onto the puller to tighten down on the small esp loop thingy.
