I find PVA bags a bit fiddly and do mine slightly different. Bottom 1/4 is just groundbait and the rest micro pellet and boilie crumb. I make the bag up,snip the top to make a flap and lick and stick. I can make really solid,compact bags with no lead/hooklink in the way. Give the bag a good piercing then attach to your hooklength via a stringer needle. Groundbait at the bottom to protect the hook point then attach to lead clip. If itโs not too damp you can have one ready made so if you do catch itโs a case of unhook old hooklink,attach new and recast. Iโm positive this has nicked me bonus fish when there on a short feeding spell. Itโs an old pic but hopefully youโll get an idea of what Iโve said.
