I've been using the original IKAs for 4 or 5 years and I like them and Bass do too :) . I rig them unweighted with a 4/0 Sugoi hook.

I tried some Fat IKAs a year or so ago and I hate them. No matter what hook I try, it doesn't rig right. A 4/0 is too small for a good hookset and a 5/0 end's up being too long. I'll stick with the 'old', 'skinny' ones 8) .
