Default Re: Fluke Hook Size

So... I also see people on party boats VERY successfully working 1.5 to 2oz bucktails on ultralight rods with 10# test and those are what, 3/0?

But like has been said bucktailling is what seems to be the real answer for reduced mortality but it's also not something you can just hand out a rental rod and have people do. So maybe the real answer here is bait draggers should be using 9/0 hooks and don't deadstick for fluke regardless?
