Very nice
The only thing I would change is that I would put the thru wire wrapped loop at the tail (or eye end) of the plug.
I see potential problems with the wrapped loop at the line tie end.
But that's MHO.

At first I did not like the wire wrap in the nose. Then I realized that you did it that way to facilitate putting the treble hook on without having to cut it or use a split ring. That in my opinion is damn good thinking!
Good start!

I'm no master, but those are looking good. Can't wait to hear if the bass agree!

I just looked at the potential of having the leader come in contact with the cut end of the nose loop wrap while fighting a fish.
I'd rather use a cut treble or an HD split ring at the tail or eye end of the plug.
Again, just MHO

Very Simple to do a tail wrap, and include putting the treble on, after you make the loop, and before you start the wrap... have done it several times, and it works out just fine.....

Also, at some point in time you WILL have to replace the tail treble.
Split rings, open eye Siwash or an open eye (or cut) treble are the only options.
