I have heard of a couple of different opinions on this one but I say use
the common sense rule until someone gives a table with sizes on it.  I
figure that Size doesn't just take into affect the length of something but
is more a measure of volume taken up than anything.  Take a regular worm
that has mutated into a 100 ft. length of dirt-lovin' fun.  Strung out like
that, he is still hard to hit but if he coils up like a snake into a ball,
then maybe he's a bit easier to peg.
So a Size 6 guy is your Standard with a few rare fellas being Size 7 or
Size 5.  So a 20 ft rat (sheesh) I would figure to be around a 9 or 10.
