Okay, so one thing I am still working on is hook sizes. I am getting better on 5/0 vs 4/0 but when it comes to treble hooks I'm still learning.

So the question I am looking at is what size is on SK red eyes, DT's. And if I'm looking for covers what size do I want to look for?

I believe on the SK Red Eye Shads in the 1/2oz the hooks are #4 trebles and the 1/4oz they are #6. Pretty much in my experience with lipless cranks, the 1/2oz models are typically #4's and 1/4oz are #6's. Most crankbaits are similar as well. 

 

So to answer your question about the hook covers, I would go with medium sized covers. They usually fit 6,4,2's
