JT Bagwell Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 What is the single item that you would never go on a fishing trip without? (I don't mean your boat, fishing license and the obvious things) I am not really sure what mine is but I will do some thinking and post it later. Quote
Super User MarkH024 Posted July 26, 2013 Super User Posted July 26, 2013 Needle nose pliers and good set of cutters. Not sure if that is obvious or not, but ever since being hooked in the fingers with trebles and 3-4 lbs hanging off my hand for dear life I will never again fish without them. Since I incorporated that rule, I have never had a hook incident again. 2 Quote
5dollarsplash Posted July 26, 2013 Posted July 26, 2013 Smart Phone-Honestly GPS, contact with 911 or assistance. I wouldn't head out without it. I keep mine in one of the Berkley waterproof containers. 1 Quote

Super User slonezp Posted July 27, 2013 Super User Posted July 27, 2013 Working on the man boobs? It's been a tradition of mine and my sons for quite some time. Before every trip to the Chain we stop off at Thornton's in Volo and he buys chocolate longjons for breakfast. Quote
BadContrakt Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Sunglasses aren't a big deal for me. I've got rugged retinas! Bugspray... Meh... I never seem to have a problem with bugs. Hat? I have the thickest most man-pretty hair - No sun penetrates through it, plus I'm italian and have naturally sun-resistant "olive" skin, so there's no need for me to have a hat to cover my neck or face either. I could go without my smartphone, although I always bring it for pictures and the all-important weather radar. Never used JJ's magic. Hmmmmmmmmm........ I'd say... I really honestly can't think of anything that I would HAVE to have with me. I just need my tackle, my rod, and a fully charged battery to beat those docks and pads with. I can live without most of the stuff mentioned here. If I see one that I really agree with I'll come back and mention it, but for now, I just need the essential fishing gear. 1 Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted July 27, 2013 Super User Posted July 27, 2013 Well if you don't have a scale & you catch a new pb it is not a true pb Then we have to live through another post of how much do you think this weighs? 6 Quote
