9/0 or 10/0 personally. You really don't have to use HEAVY hooks IMHO. For yakin out baits, I use anywhere from 9/0 - 14/0.

your talking J- hooks right? Cause even the 16-0 Circles kind of looked small to me, but they work fine.

Yes, good pont, Ben. I am talking J-hooks. Circles can go up to 16-0 or larger.

14/0 mustard opened up a bit on 90 pound nylon coated wire. I might get some 135 pound wire.
