Heading To Martha's Vineyard In Need Of Help

[TroutFearMe]

Ok guys I have been banging out trout for 8 years in Missouri now its time that I look for bigger and better. I am heading to Martha's Vineyard in Sept 2012 during the highet of the big Bass And Bluefish Derby that is held every year out there. My question is have any of you guys fished the famous fall run out there and what fly line would work, fly selection, and rod and reel would work for this advanture. I purchased and 8 weight Ross Essences, Lamson Konic 3.5 and Rio Redfish line, is this going to work or am I going to be a little out gunned any advice will be much welcomed. I will be fishing from shore.
