WOW! So much stuff, more like a picnic come camping holiday, than a bit of fishing.

 

You did not mention serviettes or napkins, nor the cook and butler. ...hehehe...

 

Sooner you than me. Chairs and beds, let me guess a generator and electric blankets too.

 

What with packing and unpacking and setting up did you actually have any time to fish? Did you in fact actually catch any fish?

 

iI would be interested in your suggestions to cut back on the tackle.

What would you take for a 3 day trip to this type of venue?

[Sportsman]

Sportsman,

 

Actually, in fairness, you're "list" is not far different than the usual 3 - or 4 guy bass excursion. You are of course missing 2 pickup trucks (like Newts); a bass boat (with matching trailer) and about $50,000 of assorted "crap".

 

Isn't there a saying, "the difference between men and boys is the price of their toys".

Edit: I have it on good authority "the guy who dies with the most stuff wins". Keep on keeping on.

Three day session for me,

 

Bivy

Chair

Sleeping bag

Tackle(enought but not to much)

Food

Water

Most importantly booze

All in a carry able rucksack, I think that would do me. But the question is would I catch the same amount fish that you would or would I catch the same quality.

 

All that aside, I say every man to them self. If I seen a man(which I have) strolling down to the bank with a truck load I wouldn't mind, I would say bet he has every thing he needs and I've been in situations where I go "ohh I wish i had this... Or I wish I had that" but really when it comes down to it the guy with the most stuff doesn't need to think those things. He just goes "where's this or where's that" tbh I wish I had the b***s to go with all that. I would sleep with one eye open, thinking some man would come and take my stuff. But hey I'm from Glasgow that's just what we expect.

 

 

On a serious note, everyone is entiltled to have as much of home as the want. Even if thats a portable toilet or a handy shave and wash kit it doesn't matter we need. What we need and carrying is that art of believing(well believing we need it)
