I am using 7/0 hooks for blues and Stripers (if I ever catch a Striper) Are these too big as thats what a friend who does catch a lot of Stripers recommended.

It also depends on what bait you are using. What bait will you be using most of the time?

we might be heading to norwalk if anyone wants ti meet up

mackerel in my opinion lasts longer on the hook
(those that are frozen/thawing)
The skin seems to be tougher along witht he meat.
