Hey there sawdustbob,
Having fished stripers and having the basic outfits is a great start. Hope the line is nice and fresh for those 25lb yellows. Sounds like you kinda know the routine. If you haven't been to the landing before, and have the time, I'd go check it out if they were open. I must admit, I am an absolute nut about getting the spot on the rail for at least the morning or first rotation if there is such a system on the boat. If they don't rotate, my advice to you is to for sure get there at least an hour before the ticket office opens instead of before the boat leaves. So if you are the first ones there! ha ha
If it were me I'd be there 2 hours before the office opens.(I'm a nut and normal people don't do that and I hope you don't)
What have you planned to do with the fish? The boat may not allow you to put a cooler on board so.......
Check out their stuff in the tackle shop anyway and compare what you've got with what they're usually selling.
It's hot out there right now but as long as you've got your motion sickness stuff, water and sun block you outta keep the old machine maintained.
Give me a yell, if you have access to a terminal while in SD. Good luck to you all.
