Jack, I use 1/0 or 2/0 Mustad Octopus (Beak) hook. The Mustad part# is 92553. I personally use the Red hooks and 30# red wire to tie my harnesses. I start with a 16" piece of wire and tie the hooks with a standard snell and use a size 4 or 5 blade either colorado or willow leaf. If you use wire you will need a #3 crimp sleeve to make your loop. I also use 6mm beads you can get at a craft store or tackle shop or online.
