I think to clip the rig for casting would need it to be an up and over rig so the hook at the end of the line could be clipped in the usual manner, then the stand off snood would need something like a breakaway relay clip to clip the hook to.

In theory it should work and cast nearly as well as an up and over rig.

The only bit I'm not keen on is the stand off blood loop, I hate tying them as they're so fiddly and I've have had one fail before. What I'd probably try is what I saw somewhere before where someone tied the stand off snood on a rig using a surgeons knot and then tie the snood round the rig body just above this in the same way a stop knot is tied, well, I think that was how it was done. It appears to be a much as safer way of tying it to me, probably unnecessary but I'd rather be safe than sorry.
