I wonder how many of you guys carry band aids when you go casual fishing?


Well, when I go "casual fishing" I only carry a bandaid. However,
when I go "formal", I carry a compression bandage, blood pressure
monitor, splints, scalpel, surgical thread and needle, adhesive tape
and bandages, Tylenol, Tylenol Cold, Tums, stool softener, Imodium,
several antiseptic towelettes, *triple* antibiotic ointment, sting
relief pads, scissors, hydrocortisone cream, curad flexible knuckle
bandages, condoms (you can never tell.....), and a little medicinal
single malt in a small flask which I am constantly refilling.

You should see my vest!

Aw, hell, you oughta leave all that at home and just carry an enema -
that way, when you fall off of your tricycle, you can use that and then
your guide can easily carry you back to the Orvis-approved lodge in the
pocket of his Simms waders...and I'm sure any Orvis-approved lodge worth
its approval would have a fully-equipped "Old Clumsy**** Sport"
sickbay...


As a matter of fact, I am fishing right now in Maine. Yeah, I carry a
computer too.

Well, sure...wireless astream is among the things required for Orvis
approval...that, and SYTs in cocktail Cushmans...I mean, you've got yer
all rustic, rugged, and as close to near-natural-like as they can make
it, and then, well, you've got yer downright uncivilised...

HTH,
