I went with size 6 which was the smallest they stock at Sea-Run. Maybe smaller hooks would help avoid poking the eyes of the smaller fish. Where did you order them? Can't find them on Amazon Canada, Cabelas.ca, or other Google results. Checked eBay as well but the shipping costs are stupid ($3.50 for some hooks, $17 for shipping).

I got them on ebay in the US from a seller who was clearing them out, and same as you #6 were the smallest I could find in Canada, keep looking on ebay as they do come up quite often, even #12's, but the #10s are small enough IMO
