Matt,
I go on these trips at least once a year (usually three trips a year between the Helen H and the Frances Fleet).
I'm not sure if the Newell would stand up to a decent sized yellowfin. There are also a few swordfish caught on these trips...
If I'm on the trip you're more than welcome to use some of my gear (I tend to bring everything I own, WAY more than I need).
Generally I think someone going on this trip should bring:
1 30 lb outfit for chunking
1 15-20 lb spinning outfit for casting to mahi and catching bait
1 jigging outfit
I'm sure there are many other options but that's where I started.
Hope to see you there.
Charlie
