Get rid of the lead above the feeder and the swivel, attach mainline directly to feeder, hook link should be shorter.
Personally I wouldn’t use that type of feeder because of fish safety, it should run free on the mainline not stay fixed

No; if your mainline breaks, any fish attached to it will be left towing the feeder and lead, massively increasing the chance it ends up tethered to something. It’s what’s known as a death rig. You want it free running or semi fixed.

The hair rig itself looks pretty good though.
