I would try or atleast be prepared for the three basic techniques. The first set-up I would use would be a 1/2 to 3/4 oz white leadhead, depending on the current and depth, with 1 or 2 squirts pinned on. That has been pretty consistant lately and you also have a shot at a butt, also. The flatties really like the white head. If you don't get bit with that, you can go to a heavy white jig and pin it with a couple squirters. Just bounce it off the bottom. The third set-up you can try is the basic sliding sinker rig and since you probably fish for the Yellows alot, as your name would indicate, you probably know what that is. You probably know what all these set-ups are but just in case you or someone else doesn't, here you go. Oh, and try putting a red plastic bead between the slider and the hook. It'll keep the weight from slamming into your knot or rubbing it alot. The red bead also adds that shot of red to the white of the squid. Something about that dash of red when it's added. Really gets their attention. And again, use the 1/2 to 3/4 oz size depending on current and depth and attach either a 3/0 or 4/0 live bait hook. The main thing is to keep your offering near the bottom where the fish will be coming through so you'll probably want to use the 3/4 oz set-ups with the currents over there. Good luck and post after your trip. I'll be out there the 18th, on a charter aboard the First String. First of many this year. Again, good luck and I'll post at ya later.

P.S. Some people like the dropper loop set-up but I like to let my fish run before I set the hook. That's just me so I didn't make mention of it but you can give that a try also.
