Back in the pink

I need to thank Wawa Walleye for mentioning Suzy. I instantly remembered where I left the shirt. I also found the missing salve I've been looking for. Damn rash....

WHAT TO BRING

Fishing

Rods

Reels

Tackle Box

Net (1 per boat)

Depth Finder (1 per boat)

Minnow Bucket (1 per boat)

Worm Container (optional, Dinty Moore Beef Stew Cans work nice)

Stringer (Sometimes nice to have two per boat)

Needle Nosed Pliers, Clippers, Knife (Tether for your pliers, you know who you are)

Clothes

Couple pair of pants

Few pair of shorts

Underwear (one of the most frequently forgotten Items)

Socks (another frequently forgotten item)

A couple of towels

Two pair of shoes

Flip Flops or slippers for the Cabin

Fitted sheet for mattress (optional, and by optional, I mean Trent is the only person who does this)

Hat (At least one that has the ability to cover your ears)

Rain Suit (This is not optional and make it the last thing you put in your duffle bag)

Miscellaneous

Sunblock (In 2009 we were 10 feet from the sun for about 4 days)

Bug Spray (It better have deet or you are wasting your money)

Fillet Knife

Sunglasses (May want to consider an extra pair as well)

Clear safety glasses (great for the driver of the boat in the evenings, keeps the bugs out of your eyes)

Stick a golf or small towel in your tackle box.

Krazy glue – Great for patching up small cuts

Flashlight and batteries – The walk from one cabin to the other gets a lot longer in the dark.

Camera – Disposable or Digital – If digital, don’t forget the batteries

Any tobacco products you might use – Sweet lord, you don’t want to buy it up there.

Tips:

Line your duffel bag with a big trash bag before you put your clothes in it (It will rain on the way up or down the river) and put an extra one in there for on the way back if need be.

Wash your hands before taking your contacts out. (I found this out the hard way, not only does in burn like heck but bug spray is impossible to get off your contacts)

Bring some type of waterproof bag to keep your raingear in the boat (Also handy when you start peeling off layers)
