From Cod reels to Cod Jigs, what to stock up on?

Here I am, getting ready now for later in September/October when I will be heading out from the North Shore/Cape Ann for Cod. I have some reels in mind thanks to the suggestions/recomendations but now I have to assemble some jigs. What to get and in what sizes colors?

I had just perused the Sea Wolfe site for Cod Bombs, Cod Killahs and Norwegian Jigs, what weights and what colors would you recommend? I know it comes down to the speed of the drift and the current strength and depth but what do you all go with for weights and colors?
