So would the usual 65# braid to 50# fluoro leader be ok on the heavier side on a 7' stick. And something like 25# mono on a lighter rig.

No Dropper Loop needed. Flyline or Flyline and add a Slip Shot 1/4 to 3/4 oz depending on size of bait and how deep the fish are.

You can take both surface or Yoyo Iron, even Colt Snipers.

Yes those setups with line are fine. Just need short Floro tipped on each one except the one you're using to toss Iron.

Good boat, good captain.

I'd bring 25#, 40# and 65# just in case. As on most overnight boats in the summer, space is at a premium on the boat, travel as light as you can.

Call the landing and ask what tackel to bring...

Better yet, if you have the time , go down to the boat a day/evening or two before your trip and talk to the crew. As you know things can change overnight. I worked the boats for many many years, finally becoming the 2nd ticket on the RRIII. So if I was going I'd bring all spectra line and a variety of fluorocarbon spools of leader materials. Terminal tackle info you can get from the crew. I'd bring the flat falls - for sure. Bring one set up for the big boys...just in case. Hope this helps. Good luck!!!
