I like #4 for the 5 inch Refins, white/chartreuse or white/white. Jann's Netcraft carries Owner's, BPS has Gammies, both are pretty sharp in my opinion, but you can also sharpen them up with a hook file if you think it's necessary. I replace the front hook also with a #4 treble also. You can do a search on Ebay for feathered trebles and get more choices. I replace the split rings with a smaller size on the fins also, the rings that are stock are a little too big and can sometimes bind in the metal loop on the lure.

Tie my own on #2 EWG gamaktsu. Usually some flashabou or about 6 white feathers. Ties very fast if you are at all handy with a vise and thread. Same idea for other sizes, but use the #2 on the back of fins.
