i have one he rigged right in front of me and rizzo got it right. he uses two slug-go weights in the head and then another in the tail. he uses those gami live bait hooks like eben mentioned. i could be wrong but i think the head hook is samller than an 8/0, more like a 5 or 6/0.

does anyone notice a difference with a stinger hook? i rig them like said before with just an 8/0 o'shaugnessy hook and thread. i would think you'd get smaller fish on the stinger.
