Is there a trick to rigging soft plastics ?

 So far ive done 21 stickbaits 1 seemed to work. Most end up pointing down on an angle or up,or the rubber is pushing the hook off center. 

I line it up beside bait to start with, then pinch head between fingers an feed hook through the head till it bends round, after which i push the tip through.

1. First, line the jighead up with the plastic as it would look if it was inside.

2. Where the hook would come out, tear a small mark with the barb of the hook as a guide.

3. Feed the plastic on as straight as possible and pop the barb out at that mark you made.

Tada!,

The hook will always be facing up due to the eyelet on the jighead being on the same side
