On The Water Snacks?

[gripnrip]

I was wondering what everyone packs for a whole day on the water.  I love food.  I love to eat and I should eat to live but that is not as much fun.  My usual old standby is PBJ.  What are your choices for a day on the water?  

[Fishing Rhino]

It varies.  Plenty of beverages, water, soda, fruit juice, etc.  Usually have a supply of cheese or peanut butter crackers, and a sandwich or two.  No preferences other than something simple, that's not messy to eat  Usually bring some fruit.  That's about it.

I usually get distracted and forget to eat honestly, more so if im catching them.

 

"No time to eat must cast..."

 

I really dont like to take alot of stuff also helps avoid "uh oh gotta go #2 out in the middle of no where" which i live in fear will happen to me one day haha.  which means it will Probably be some time this year during one of my weekend series tourneys. ha!

 

I prefer to eat something lite before going out for a long day. If i do take something i'll keep it simple, Jerky, bag of chips and some kind of energy drink like 5 hour, and maybe a couple of Diet Dews or water. Just enough to put something in the tank so i'm not starving and get distracted by hunger while fishing.

Water, cheese/pb crackers, maybe a sammy, and definitely gotta have some sunflower seeds.

Sub sammiches, pop, and apples or oranges, and plenty of water on tourney day. I'll trade the pop for a couple beers fun fishing, and maybe throw in some pretzels

Bottled water and gatorades. Protien bars, nabs, or a couple of the one dollar double cheeseburgers bought the night before from McDonalds. Something simple and not messy.

I normally take my Bubba cup full of coffee in the mornings.

My son and I have a morning ritual. Gas up at Thorntons and grab a 6 pack of chocolate longjons  

[SudburyBasser]

If we remember: Water and chocolate bars. And cigarettes.

 

We usually only go out for about 6-8 hours so we tend not to bring too much.

[Bluebasser86]

Pb&j, sometimes so beef jerky or trail mix. Usually have a 2 gallon jug of water or thermos of coffee depending on the time of year. 

[Hanover_Yakker]

4-5 bottles of water (3 usually are frozen that act as ice packs in the Hobie soft-sided cooler I carry), 2-3 granola or fruit bars, 2 mini bags of trail mix, a bag of beef jerky and an apple or two.  Occasionally, I will throw in a PBJ or a ham/turkey sandwich on wheat.

 

Part of this is to make sure I have something on my stomach each hour on the water and increase my energy level without need for leaving early.  In the event that my day is cut short, I have snacks for the ride home.

Pretty much this exactly. Plus BANANAS too!

[Fishes in trees]

I always remember to bring some Lance Crackers, or some other food that doesn't require refrigeration.  Sometimes some meat & cheese & crackers snacks like Lunchables.  Sometimes a sandwich from Caseys or a half sub from Sub Shop.  Sometimes celery & carrots.    I've learned my lesson about fishing all day and not eating, i.e. that isn't a particularly healthy thing to do.  I always carry plenty of water and generally I'll carry a few beers.   Even if I'm only going for half a day, I carry water & food.

I forgot to mention the smokes...but thats nothin new..i do make sure to have an extra pack in case its a slow frustrating day.

[jbsoonerfan]

Gatorade

Homemade jerkey (deer or beef)

Peanuts

Crackers

Mini snickers

Chips

 

Usually just grab a quick bite or two every hour to try to keep from getting to hungry, because once I am hungry, there is only one thing on my mind. FOOOOOD!

[Deleted account]

Its always the same thing, Large black coffee (no sugar), bacon egg and cheese on a plain bagel, Wawa Italian Sub, Entenmann's Pop 'ems, Cheetos (or salt and vinegar chips), 16 oz Coke, large orange Gatorade, Large Deer Park H2O. If I'm still hungry I carry a couple of Trail Mix packs...

[Zeeso]

Honey wheat pretzel twists and some water. Oh honey wheat pretzel twists how I love you. I tend to stay away from anything that makes me pop a squat and so far these keep it under control.

[mnbassman23]

Granola bars, 2 sandwiches, 4-5 waters, and either a pop or coffee for early mornings.  

[wakeeater]

BANANAS???  holy cow!  that's like putting a live skunk in your boat....or the devil himself!

[Jell0b0y]

I usually pack water, couple cans of soda, some fruit and homemade snack sticks or Jerky. I like to have food that is quick to eat so i can get back to fishing ASAP. 

[CPBassFishing]

When I'm pond hopping (which is 99% of the time), I throw a water bottle and a cliff bar in my tackle box. Cliff bars are great! I can be completely worn out, eat one, and be full of energy for the next hour.

[Gatorbassman]

Bananas
