Not sure about grasshoppers(never tried them) but all others will work. grubs if you can get them will also work,yellas favourite is the shrimp/worm cocktail.
I use a running sinker with about 2-3 ft of leader but a paternoster or running sinker to the hook is fine,they all work if the fish are around.

Yep grubs and yabbies for the cod. Shrimp and worms for the yellas, but will also catch you cod. Simple rig of hook on the end of the line with the running sinker above it.

Running sinker rig and I love using worms as bait. You will catch anything on worms but if your just after cod then go a nice big yabbie>
