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!

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

I would add to that some surgical adhesive like Skinstich, some
hemostats, some 4 tailed bandages, morphine serretes, a quart of
dextran and a battery opperated defibulator. In case all that
doesn't work I would have a chainsaw as well. You may need to clear
some trees to get the dust-off in. You do have a radio of course.
Of course if your like your hero Cheny you have a doctor 20 paces
behind at all times.
