I keep an assortment with some tandem rigged/weighted for quicker retrieves, single hooks unweighted for slower retrieves in the upper-water column, and single hooks weighted to sift through the schoolies when getting down deeper.
What hooks have you been using on your 9" Got Strypers? I need to rig mine up.

I use the supposedly "new and improved" lunkercity offset hooks.

The hard right angle lies nice and tight to the body when rigged tex-sposed.
