i run the hook thru the nose (about 1/4-3/8") and out towards the side with the slot (bottom), and then back up thru theslot to the topside of the bait, then the point of the hook will lay flat on top of the bait, i also barely stick the point back into the bait to keep from snaggin grass and such, my two guesses of what the slot is for???, makes the bait float/suspend better and less bulk to get in the way on hook-sets

also check here for a visual, this is with a slug-go but should be comparable
