Unless you're fishing for giants go with the 8 or 9 inch squids.

Size wise it depends were your fishing.

Don't be afraid to use even bigger squids for SBF's. In our area, Stellwagon, CC Bay from what my freind Skip (who makes many bars) claims... The footballs love the big squids, even bigger than 13, like 15 and 18. South of the cape seems to be a different story, stay with the smaller ones.....

Those ones Freak had on the link are the ticket....., I would not go smaller than 13". And that price is very good. Stay with dark colors.

Tell your fiance' how many squid bars you could have bought instead of that rock on her finger, make sure your about 5 feet from her before you stay it

I will be scaling down my tackle this year. Almost all of the footballls I saw and or caught last season were feeding on small bait. I did not have one hookup on my big bars or chains ( all from Fishermans Outfitters) and only had a couple of fish crash my spread. All of the fish I caught or hooked came on spinning gear and small metals and poppers.
I just went to a great tuna seminar and it seems most are using smaller squids and feathers also.
