I use a number four circle from Gamakatsu for split shot rigging Kalin's for bass sometimes that works very well. The bass seem to hook themselves. I have never seen any smaller though. I'll bet if you can find a tiny one, it would work well. You should try just a 12 or 14 baitholder also. I often have a dropper with a small baitholder and extra mealworm when it's slow at Pelican. The fish that take the hook rarely get gut hooked. I don't know why, just the way gills bite I suppose. I don't think deep hooking will be a problem either way.
