I'm not sure what size for sure. The rules for reds where I fish require you
to use only a fly. They do have a size limit which I believe is a #3 with no
more than an 1/2" spread from the point and main length of the hook. I just
buy Russian River Flies and don't have to worry about it since thats where I
fish for them anyway. They don't actually strike the fly either, it's called
precision snagging. Just get the line to drift through their mouth and give
it a rip. As long as their hooked in the mouth you can keep them. Many times
you can save a trip to the store by pulling all the flies out of their
tails, backs and bellies.

Where I come from, this technique is usually referred to as 'flossing'
and is just as illegal as any other type of snagging. It will get you
a hefty ticket if the game warden notices you doing it.
