If using a hook I go with 5/0 or 6/0 Circle Hook, Scale down the hook size if they are smaller, but with the big one's 50+ lbs go with a larger hook.
If you are going with artificial tackle the rope trick mentioned by several other posters works very well, I make a skirt for a large spinnerbait with the frayed frop and real it very fast to break the waters surface to initiate some very aggressive strikes.
