Consider this....

The mechanism that keeps that worm straight and in place (friction of rubber on mono) is the same that allows the worm to stay scrunched.

Perhaps a "looser" pre-placed hole will eliminate the scrunch factor altogether?

Just need to peg the worm with a sequin and bead to keep it from sliding all the way back to the hook.
