I would rig it like this. From top to bottom, bobber stop, bead, 1oz float, 1oz egg sinker, barrel swivell, and then a leader with a hook tied on with egg loop knot.
steelheadstalker31 is right on. Don't go bigger than 1oz. Those big nooks can bite so lite you won't even see it with a big bobber. I put another bobber stop below the bobber so in case my swivell breaks I don't loose a bobber. Also people argue that you need a big bobber in tide water because the holes are 20+ft deep. Most of the locals fish 8ft and say the biters will come up and take it. I tried it last week and it worked like a swiss clock. Good bait, lite bobbers and good luck out there.

i agree with the 8' deep factor!
That's how I fish as well, good quality eggs somewhere between a super ball and a golf ball. I see guys fishing 7/0 hooks with naked eggs the size of your fist as well, but I seem to miss more fish when I go above a golf ball.
