+ a big dip-net,
You don't need any extra clothes if you wear some H20 express Bibs and if you have the jacket in the boat you don't have to have a rain suit, they keep you clean, and dry, and the wind off you!!!

Hooks. I keep a small pair of scissors to cut line but the cutters on a pair of needle nose works too. I always keep electrical tape too. Never know when something decides to break.

If you catch big fish, don't waste your money on cabelas grips. Larry went thru 3 or 4 pair last season

A kid! My boy is like a real time pole tap alarm. Whether its really a fish or just a bottom bouce while drifting, he makes sure I know somethings happening...
I love watching them get that kick out of a fish-on!

If you catch big fish, don't waste your money on cabelas grips. Larry went thru 3 or 4 pair last season I bought 5 pairs from Team Catfish last winter. Other than when we have to use more than 1 pair at a time, i've only needed 1 pair. They are holding up great so far.

I think the Team Catfish grips are better than the Cabellas grips, we never had any problem with the ones Tom has!!!
