hello everyone my first post/ question

Hello all my first post hope you guys can help

I am building my first plug and have sealed the plug an picked my colors but realize I have no idea how to secure the eyelid and the tail hook, any easy way to do this it look like a pain. I have looked at some of my purchased plugs and i think i can twist up the end hook but am not sure how the get the eye in place without the tag end potentially popping out when a 50 pounder hits it.

make sure you have ample tag end on your nose loop and wrap your tail loop tight to the back of the plug. front can't pull out that way. welcome.
