Me neither. Get you a hook with a good keeper and it shouldnt be a problem. I like the Roboworm rebarb hook. Jungle hook if youre flipping. Even with using a traditional EWG Gammy, Ive never really had any problems with it.

step by step photos. I push the nose of my bait up over the knot so that protects it, plus the swivel doesn't really move much. It is help in place by the hook.

then to undo just slide the swivel back off the hook (I use a bobber stop so I can add slack to my leader to move the swivel. Hope this clears it up.

I assumed the OP was asking about plastics that slip through the hook after catching a fish or two. This is when I will sometimes cut off 1/2" and get down to fresh meat... to get "one more" fish out of it before discarding.
