Dropshot

Hey guys, I just picked up some owners mosq hooks In sizes of 6-8-10-12. Which is a good size to fish with the ripperz when downshoting. And which one is ideal for powerworms?

Use the 8 or 10 with the ripperz, 10 or 12 for the powerworms.

Stay with the 10 and 12 for both types of trout worms, most of these guys fish trout worms on a split shot or a sliding sinker rig but I have done well using a drop shot from a boat or float tube.

Like Fishslayer, I have done well dropshotting the little worms for trout, and with the #10 tru-turns, as well as the mosquito hooks. IMHO, I think the #10 mosquito hooks are perfect for the power worms, though I've caught a few on the #8, too.
