I was just making a list of fishing things that aren�t necessary to catch fish but make fishing more fun. For me a good pair of scissors made for cutting braid is a biggie. Another huge one for me is polarized sunglasses. What do y�all think?

Sunglasses for sure! I hate squinting all day.

Hook sharpening hone-It only takes a few swipes, like new.
Good set of aluminum needle nose pliers

jumper cables, tow rope, hook remover kit.

Dude Wipes

A nice picture of the sunrise/sunset when you dont catch anything 😂

Good high UV sunscreen and use it.
Wish I had years ago instead of getting burned, and now years later paying for it!

Change the jumper cables for one of the lithium mini jumper batteries. Those are great in a boat. Plus you can use it to charge your cell phone too.

Mustang HIT inflatable and still me dry clothes for winter fishing alone.

A good Bluetooth speaker!

+ 1 to all above, especially Dude wipes!

Spare prop and prop wrench.
Tool kit
Spare fuses
Trash bag to throw your trash in instead of it blowing out of the boat and into the lake.

A butt load of $$$$$

I always save the ice bag for trash

...and use it! Good one Ken.

Line clippers(plural, as in never enough) braid scissors too.

Think like Noah when loading the boat. Two of everything, unless it really works, then much more. Ha.

Extra life jackets for the guys that never think to bring one their own.

Obviously make sure your boat is good and your license is current.

Patience
Tenacity
Respect for others

Ok, I know that wasn't the direction of the original post.

pocket knife, clippers, hook remover, dip net
first aid kit, sunscreen, spare hat, kleenex
extra gallon of 2-cycle oil,

Sunglasses, sunscreen and cold beverage/beer.
