Scott, I've used as big as the large Dannys and the P-40s with great results. the Atom Jr is a great size for most people to use. About 1 in or so.The groove doesn't need to be very deep just wide enough for a wire tie and room to cut it when done.Sometimes the biggest problem is gettin the skin off to replace it with a new one.No room to cut it loose. I use skins a lot. Work great.Blues don't tear them up as much as an eel.
