I had a discussion with a friend the other night about items we bring along on fishing trips and thought it would be interesting to hear others items. For me it's a hat that is bleached from the sun so much that it almost looks white, it always seems to make it's way on a trip.

So, what's the one item you won't leave home without when going on a trip

Bifocal polarized sunglasses. Need them because I can't see s**t close up, plus I gotta have shades when on the water!

They are all important! But if I had to pick one, life jacket! A close second would be drain plug.

So many things depending on the weather and where you are going and what you are after, but a head covering for sure.

You guys are all fishing illegal....except for me. I make sure I have my fishing license.

Excuse me while I go and call the DNR tip line on all of you fools.

The camera! Forgot it one day last year. Went fishing without it. The whole time I thought in my head that I didn't even want to catch a fish. I was miserable. Guess what...I got skunked! Imagine that.

Mini bolts. You can't cut a deep hook out with toilet paper, but you can scrape your ass crack with bolt cutters.

I know this sounds stupid but the pliers never made it up. Good thing we caught only a handful aggressive northerns and one perfectly hooked musky to only see a safe return to the water.

PMA. Sounds stupid, but if you're out there with a crappy attitude, you're not catching #*#*. And there is NOTHING worse than being in the boat with someone who has a crappy attitude.

My utility box. In it I keep my fish finders, camera, tripod, GPS, sunglasses, Kleenex, wrist brace, extra batteries, maps, fishing laws, lunar tables, eyedrops and some other stuff. By putting all that in one box, it is much easier to remember it all.
