For soft plastics you can't go wrong with Fin-S or Sluggos, I use anywhere from 4" to 7" with 1/4 oz. to 1-1/2 oz. lead heads in the former and 6" through 9" with 1/2 oz. to 3 oz. heads in the latter, size and weight used depends on water depth, strength of current, size of prevalent bait, etc. Sluggos also work well with no weight, just a single Shaughnesy hook. My favorite soft plastics though have become the RonZ, I use everything from 6" on 1/4 oz. heads to 10" on 3 oz., they catch fish when nothing else will! You should also pick up a few hard baits like Bombers, great, inexpensive lures that just catch fish. I'm not familiar with the spot you mentioned, so you'll need to assess what weights and sizes your local conditions warrant, and as for color, don't get too hung up on that, anything that is darker on top and lighter on the bottom will mimic any type of baitfish, that being said, don't be afraid to throw chartreuse or bubblegum stuff, that works too. Lastly, make sure the jig heads you get have good, strong hooks on them, saltwater fish put way more pressure on your gear than smallies. Hope this helped and welcome to the site, there's a whole lot of good information to be had here, I know the guys on this board have definitely helped me become a better angler.
