I have seen alot on Tv and in the magazines past few months that the best flippin hook is a straight shank worm hook in 4/0-6/0 size depending on the weight and bait you are throwing.  It is supposed to give a better in line hook set than the EWG craze going on right now.

I flip and pitch a lot with jigs, but when I do flip with soft plastics and braid, I use a Gamakatsu 4/0 Superline EWG.

You could try Reaction Innovations BMF Flippin' Hook  comes in 3/0, 4/0, and 5/0.

I have no experience with these, I just saw them while browsing.
