i second the owner jobu or jabu or whatever it is, and size depends on the size of the pogie, size of the tuna, if they are being picky or not, and depends if your bridleing it or not.
also, i like the circle hooks. i HATE circle hooks for every other form of fishing, i refuse to use them for any other fish. it is how they catch HUGE marlin, consistently. and those things jump. once a circle hook is in a tuna jaw, its not comming out, unless you do something wrong, like fight the fish too long. long liners have been using them long before recreational fisherman have, and those huge tuna fight nothing but a longline for hours until someone comes around to pull them in. its like a padlock to the mouth.
