My first trip to Chesapeake, help?

[Trialz]

First of all, WASSUP! I am Trialz. I love fishing but I havent gone due to winter breaking me down, but I am going in hot with my first big trip! The Chesapeake Bay

My mom mom bought me an old arsenal that has probably seen better days I bet, but I sound some nice lures and hooks and etc within this jungle of 30 (more than a steel air pack for fire fighting for christs sake lmao)

The rod I am using for the bay is an 8 foot Abu Garcia Bruiser. Only used a few times sadly =[

I am going to attach some pictures of hook and lures that i think has some potential

First are my weights. It would be cool to teach me how to rig them up and all.... http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/z...AS/weights.jpg

I like these ones. They are rubber squids with a nice octopus hook on 'em. http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/z...GTAS/squid.jpg

Typical bass hooks, there are 2 hooks one on top of each other.

I have had smaller ones in the fresh water using these http://i821.photobucket.com/albums/z...s_picture3.jpg
