They are fulling mill 3/0. Don't think you would need to go any bigger than that.

Cheers, Euan.

Must agree hooks are fine...

Its just Maybe the way you have tied the funky in... its making the hook look smaller but they are perfect....

Just like this one, but when it gets grabbed it won't let you down as the funky is soft!!!
