Day trip fishing checklist
A day on the bank is the most common trip and the most forgetful one: with no overnight it feels like there's nothing to pack. Check water, rain jacket and repellent — those get left behind most.

Check the forecast for your water
The day list is built from weather, ice and the fish that bite. Open your water's forecast — the “What to bring” card is there.

How much water for a day?
At least 1.5 litres per person, double in heat. Tea in a thermos doesn't count.
Boots if it's dry?
The bank is always wet — dew, silt, surf. Rubber boots or waterproof hiking boots.
What food for a day?
Anything that keeps without a fridge: sandwiches, boiled eggs, vegetables, nuts. See the food list.
