It was size 8 that was mentioned Vic.
Hi Banjojohn .... i would just go for inline or pendant running leads .
No need for it to be on a length of line , got tangles written all over it & the lead will be working against you when playing the fish & depending on the length of your hooklink quite possibly bashing the fish .
If you were to swap the lead & hooklengh positions that would be a helicopter rig .
In my picture.... there called hook beads
The Ronnie is a pop up rig & very easy to make .
