Going to take the plunge and start fishing the ned in deeper water while it's pretty hot, and continue using it as needed into the fall. I will be placing an order for some Gopher mushroom heads in the 3/32 variety for current conditions. What size hook do I want for the Z man TRDs? I'm thinking 1/0. What are you guys using?

#2 or #1. The small hook still sticks fish well and doesn't snag as much because of the smaller hook gap.

1/0 is WAY too big !! ... You want a #2 hook on the Gopher heads (as the largest) with TRD's  and I even do well on a #4 hook on the Gopher heads with the TRD's .

I refused to believe that the #4-6 hooks would hold a larger fish until I tried them.  Now the only reason I go larger is to 1: Reduce bycatch of tiny panfish that swarm the lure and 2: Need to make the rig weedless.
