Antil tangle sleeves are like tail rubbers & will go over the swivel from hookilnk at lead/ clip to mainline or leader. Personally i dont use shrink tube. The rigmarole fluro to swivel i use 3 turn blood knot or loop knot. Then the anti tangle pushed up over the knot, if it moves push it over the eye of the swivel. It shouldnt make any difference on lead arrangement.
A few more edges. Pull everything down with pulling tool, chod pen & i only started last year sharpening the hookpoint & ensuring its sharp every time it goes out
I dont tend to push the bait onto the swivel this allows more movement. I also use an anti tangle sleeve from the lead or clip just for peace of mind that the trap is set!!
Goid luck fella

The size of pop up will depend on the bottom bait. I cut off 1/4 of bottom bait with a craft knife. The same with the pop up. Check how it sits in a bucket or the margins, you can trim down the pop up accordingly, u want it to sink slowly, i waft my hand in the bucket & check how it moves. You'll know when its sitting nicely.
I use stiff rigmarole fluro, size 6 krank, 3 turn blood knot allows a bit of movement in the hook, micro swivel held with rigmarole hook stop, floss to attach bottom, snowman or wafter. Excellent hookholds, never lost a fish on this rig.
