based on your original question, i'd say go with a #2 or #1 vmc 4x (whichever looks the closest to the hooks that come with the plug). i'm assuming that you using about a 4-5" bomber. i use #1 vmc 4x trebles on small redfins and they produce well. downsizing your leader will help alot in getting small plugs like that to swim. 20 lb test or less is best. Also, keeping the split ring on the nose of the plug (I always remove it) or using a loop knot will help a bit.

6x trebles have applications, but light weight plastic swimmers really aren't one IMO.
