I spoke to Beachmaster about this yesterday actually. Although this may apply to his Musso style needle as well, for the batch of needles that are being produced right now you can go with hooks up 5/0.
It's built to sit towards the tail end and obviously cast like a bullet because of that. You can tailor the pairing of the hooks to make the needle sink the way you want; to make it sit a little bit more foward put a 4/0 on the back and a 5/0 on the belly.
And last but not least, speaking of the new needle, 200 of them just arrived this morning. The shop will be closed till Monday because we are packing up to go to the Marlboro Fly Fishing Show this weekend, but as soon as we get back they will be available online and in the store.
I'll put an additional post up when we have pics.
