    Treble Hook Size Recommendations?

    I've come into a bunch of baits that are in good condition, but need some hooks replaced. As a general rule, what size hooks are recommended for the following list of baits below? Trying to minimize the guesswork and buying only close to what is needed. Thanks!

    1.5 squarebills

    2.5 squarebills

    Original Zara Spook

    Pop-R

    Chug Bug

    Here's what I would use...
    "The man of system is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it…He seems to imagine that he can arrange the different members of a great society with as much ease as the hand arranges the different pieces upon a chessboard.” Adam Smith, The Theory of Moral Sentiments
