Gonna rig a bass rod for tomorrow but the 10/0 Demon circles may be a bit much for calicos and smaller baits. I was going to rig smaller but what size would you go down to?
I have some 2oz sputniks and was thinking a 5/0 circle on a drop shot of 20lb mono with a single baby octopus, crab, pelagic crab, or squish.

the 1's I've bin getting have bin on 8/0-10/0 siwash style hooks.
The big 1 from last week was on a 5/0 light wire circle, on 40# shock leader, go figure.
I kept 1 the other day and it had a good size octopus and ghost shrimp!
I've always got mine on the 8/0 octopus, but If I were going down to 20#, I think a 5/0 would be a perfect size.
A big legal calico will have no problem with a 10/0 hook.
Just picked up some 4,5,6/0 for the 20# rod. Rigged a 5/0 up first.
We'll see what happens tomorrow.

Only 1 more thing to consider,
I was fising smaller baits on my smaller setup for bass, I had wire still, just in case. Go figure got a 7gill on it.

Very good point.
No wire but I got a spool of line and weights in case I get broke off a lot.
