I've read everything I could find on BWE and the net and am still alittle confused so here's my questions...
How large of a loop do you normally use? 
Do you loop or tie the hook directly to the loop?
Do you cut the loop to make a single leader for the hook?
I'm planning on using the rig with squid and macs as bait.
Thanks for the help,
Mike

when I do it, I tie two loops on the mainline, each about 5 inches long, thread the loop through the eye of the hook, and then send the hook through the middle of the loop, pull, tighten. This, IMO, is the best presentation.
heres a visual:

I dont even usually use a snap swivel at the top, I just tie directly to my mainline or top shot (whichever rod im on)
