Some like the thin hooks, many times when snagged you can just pull the hook straight and retrieve the jig, re bend the hook and your back fishing.
Might depend on line strength and what your fishing too.
I like longer shanked hooks like the Northland Shiner jig, unfortunately they're not made anymore (I believe) so I cast my own.
I'll use whatever good quality hooks I can fine with the longest shank, gamakatsu work, but so do several other brands I've tried.
Key is use a hook size to match the bait I'm planning on using.
