Any tips of how to add a quick simple hair rig to a ready made-up hook length with a hair rig already attached, but needing a different length while fishing.

Loop to loop a bait band to the hair.
Very good!To band a worm, push a thin baiting needle through the last inch or so of worm at the head end, exiting through its mouth. Hook the band and extend it, push the worm up the band so its head touches the eye of the hook and then carefully release the band. The band bunches up inside the head, holding the worm firmly against the eye and leaving the whole hook clear. They'll stay on for the long chuck and there's the bonus that they seem to have much less of a tendency to reimpale themselves as they wriggle.
