The most important feature for a chunking hook is finding one that is non-offset.

Skiper, there will be some Frenzy circle hooks for TBB 06 for you to try. Non-offset, and pretty blue and red in color.
Also got a few packages of "big daddy" circles for the deep drop times. 8/0-9/0. etc.
Frenzy would be pleased for you and others to try them and give feed back.

i use the ringed super mutu in sizes from 3/0 to 7/0 depending on the size of my chunks. i know there is a lot of debate over offset and non offset. i have never had an issue with the offset deep hooking a tuna so far. the quality and the strength of the super mutu's is great.....rick

I personally like mustad demon in 5/0 or 6/0
( i think thats the size) they are about like your thumb size

like most things fishing, there are many ways to go, most are what your comfortable with.

I actually have been using the newer red Penn circles recently. They're relatively inexpensive when compared to some of the other circles on the market. I really like them. In fact, so much that I've been using them on my bottom drop rigs as well.

The red Penn (Eagle Claw) hooks have done well for us on the bottom drops but I've ordered a bunch of super mutu's for the tuna fishing. After a little reading and hands on they seem like the way to go.
