I was mistaken. I just looked a the pack and they are 1/0. But they look really big compared to a 1/0 gami siwash.

I build my spinners fairly compact/short. And the hook is 2/3 the length of the spinner itself. So the fish gets a good mouthful of hook. I don't think that would be much of an issue as the fish went crazy for them last summer.
