What is the best way to hook a live shrimp and what size hook. Is it best to use a carolina style rig with about 18 to 24 inch leader.

cool info, but why not just use a standard slip cork rig?

Thanx for the vidoe, do you hook him up like the picture, what size hook do you use. 4/0 live bait hook. as for your question, probably both. See what is bitting..

Yes, hook them like in the picture. As for hook size you need to match that up with the size of shrimp you get. Try the Kahle
style hook...
