I always use the biggest, heaviest ones I can find- generally the Owner ones in 20 lb or 30 lb mainline. Sz 8 or 6 hooks should be fine.

Reason being, unless you have a specific sabiki rod (that reels the rig inside of the rod itself) they tend to tangle... And it's much easier picking apart the heavier line.

Haven't found the bait to be too picky about the size of the rig- mackerel, herring, pollock, whiting all seem to hit just about anything.
