10 oz sinker then 2 2/0 snelled hooks on the bottom like a flounder rig, 10 foot or so of 30 to 40 lb top shot, 40 to 50lb braid, blackfish rod and reel. Sometimes can get away lighter depending on conditions. Not enough cod around to bother with a high hook unless you are seeing sea bass. Otherwise downlow will work well. If you see flounder, you can try the same rig with smaller hooks like 1 or 2.
