        Jet did a good write up of his set up last year, you might check it out - http://snaggedline.com/boatyard/showthread.php?t=5

        I've been using 4/0 because most of the spot I've been fishing with are tiny. I stopped going through both lips and now only go through the top lip and out a nostril, seems to keep the bait alive longer.
        Used to fish more.

          some people hook them up through both lips or the dorsal fin. i always hook them up through the upper lip. They don't die as quick that way.

            i usually use 5/0-6/0 gama circle hooks and hook them through the dorsal, they tend to swim down when hooked that way and up when hooked through the nose.
