3 rods. Usually just use two and the third is always rigged for heavy bottom fishing.

Usually 2 tackle boxes and a few loose baits or rigs in bags

Water bottle

Ice chest for fish with some extra water

Hemostats (best hook removal device there is)

Pocket knife

Pfd stored somewhere. I never wear it.

Something to eat.

Small dry box for phone, keys,
etc.

Fish gripper, worth it's weight in gold in the yak

Net. The one time I left it I really needed it.

I stay out there all day usually and bring a lot of shite, but a KC has space for it.

- 3 rods (topwater, jighead and plastic for sight casting/bottom fishin, and poppin cork)
- full sized fish cooler
- 12 pack sized igloo for beer and food
- backpack with camera, rain jacket, pliers, phone, tobacco, etc, whatever
- big tackle box that goes under seat
- stick anchor

If I decide to put on the trolling motor, I'll have somebody else take the fish box or I'll grab a bag (we found one that fits perfect in the front of a KC but the name escapes me)

Oh I forgot the stakeout pole! My other favorite peice.

I have the 6 ft YakAttack Park N Pole, stake out/push pole.

You can make an equally good one for cheap though.

How do you throw a cast net from a kayak? Just curious.

I always bring to much but I hate not having something if I need it.

I always bring multiple options for stopping depending on the conditions:

anchor or drag chain
drift sock or drag chain
small stakes for banks
bungees of connnecting to pilings, etc
limbclaw for tying up to tree limbs

Always, always, always bring a large serated knife - you never know when you need to cut one of your ropes in an emergency during strong current etc.

Very carefully
