I, too use spangled bobbins, and usually put the hitch on the thread.
I find that when the thread is gettin run-down, and mustly used up, then the
hitches don't hold. Then I either push the thread up to the neck, or, if it
is too tight to move, I pull most of it off, and rewind it near to the
hear, and then the hitch holds.
Otherwise, I wrap twice around the neck of the bobbin then add the
half-hitch, and that usually holds well. If that turns out too tight, I
delete one of the winds around the neck.
