RC, I thought this was a help last time. Where is it going wrong for you:

...After you wrap the top hook with 4-5 half hitches, take the dacron strands, and as one unit, loosley tie and overhand knot (make single loop and thread the end through once). Keep the knot as close to the hook as possible, but keep it slightly loose. Then seperate the two strands above the knot and pull away from each other to snug the knot down against the hook (pull hard). Apply some superglue and cut away excess strands.

Here is a picture of the overhand knot before you snug it down - re-read above.
