Full scale pencil poppers

Hi
Just wondering which hooks would suit these pencil poppers best..5/0's trebles on the belly and rear, or a single jobu on the rear - if so which size...
cheers

It will perform best with 5/0 trebles front/rear. I have also found an assist rig on the back works well.

Cheers..I rigged it with 6/0 decoy middle and 8/0 jobu on the rear. These decoy hooks are probably the same as a 5/0 or 4/0 st66n. Will try the other one with 2 trebles and see how it goes.
