I'm leaving next Wed for a boys trip to Los Suenos. 2 days big game and 2 days bottom/inshore for roosters, groupers etc...

I figure the big game rides are a "watch, learn, and help if you can grassopper" deal.

I want to "Bring it" with the bottom trips. What do they do out there for bottom fishing? Liveys? Dead bait on the bottom? Jigs? Plugs?

I figure I will only bring one do-it-all, yet replaceable rod and reel. Specifically my Trevala F and an Avet MXl w/50# braid. Our outfitter advised the airlines would not allow reels with line, and high end reels may disapear in checked bags. I"ll figure a way around that, probably de-spool on an old line spool and check it, or take the reel apart and check the spool.

My question is, what tackle would you bring, and how? Should I bring Gami circles? Flouro?

I really have no Idea!!
