We spend a fair amount of time in a drift boat during the season. There are a things you need to have and others that you don't. A few of our favorite essentials.
Summer is coming, make a plan now before it's gone.
- Two rod set ups. One for dries and nymphs. One for streamers. One or two sink tip lines and you are good to go.
- Sun pro. Long sleeved shirt, sun gloves, Buff, hat and good sunscreen. We prefer Dermatone.
- Quality polarized sunglasses with lanyard.
- Long handled net. Don't bring that small handled brookie scoop.
- Beer. In a can. PBR might be the height of outdoor foodie fashion right now. We see way too many posers quaffing this brew for us to part take in the "I'm cool, look" beer. We would rather support a local company. Our choice is Baxter Brewing Co.
- Camera.
- A box of large streamers. Articulated, dumbell eyes, deer hair and rabbit concoctions. If you're not throwing these, you're missing out on some of the best opportunities of the day.
- Some really good companions. Whether it's family, friends or your dog. Share the day.
