Been invited for an off-shore trip this weekend, I have two rods that can accomodate the trip but what kind of tackle should I get? Should mainly be fishing for kings, and shark maybe snapper? I've seen the kingfish rigs, and shark rigs at academy would that work? Just get leader material? I just figure I need the basics, leader material, hooks, and swivels wieghts just not sure what exactly...any suggestions would be appreciated thanks.

I would talk to the person you are going fishing with. Most people that have boat have enough gear for you to use. I would not see a reason for you fo go buy a bunch of offshore gear if you not going to be going offshore on a regular bases.

Yeah, check with your host first.

The rigs they sell in stores aren't worth carrying out the door, even if they gave them to you.
