Use 2. Its not going to result in less bites and it has the best holds.

I must be the only out there using size 8's??

Using old ESP Raptor curve shanks ( bought in bulk) or the newer cryogenic curve shank replacements.

10mm pop ups, 6 inch boom, not had a hook pull to date and had quite a few fish on a difficult venue where the smaller presentation seems to pay off judging by other people's results generally

Exactly. My hook size has been trending up over the last few years but now doing well (I would say better) with size 6 (pop ups) and 8s (bottom baits and small pop ups).
