I'm happy to pass info on. I personally have tried all that you are talking about. When fishing live baits Circle hooks are my choice, I even like the ring ones as you mentioned. I have rarely used larger than 2/0, but mostly use sz 1 or 2. I've never had an issue withe those size of hooks.
For plastics I use regular hooks, but with the drop shot rig I have used a small circle hook also. Just remember with Circle hooks you don't need to swing, let the hook set itself.
You know we're always being told, "this is what you are suppose to do." I've learned that what works well for one may not work for others.
