What do you have now? Anything?

If they're going to have live squid for bait all you is some 3/0 hooks and some 1/4 - 1oz egg sinkers.

If Sardines, some 1/0 hooks and the same sinkers.

Oscar, using an HX for 3/4 day trips is like using a GAU-16 to hunt ducks. You need a smaller 25-20# outfit not a reel designed for 50#. What rod is that you have?

Depending on the size of the bait, remember it takes a bit to swallow the bait so a good long 5 count will help before setting the hook if your
using mono. Don't rush it.
