I think I read this on here once before but I for got. What is your favorite thing to take with you on the boat to eat while fishing. I usually take a ham sandwich and some chips and a Pepsi. One of my buddies told me a guy he know takes a hole bucket of chicken from KFC when he goes and eats on it all night, just puts it under the console.

Goose52 reply :

I take a couple of fruit bars and a couple snack-size boxes of raisins. I take some water but usually don't drink it unless it's really hot (no head in the canoe!).

I spend as much as 6 to 8 hours in the canoe - if the bite is good, I'm usually too busy to think of eating. When the bite slows, then I grab the munchies...

cufishin reply :

Something that became a tradition for my Dad and I was peanut butter & jelly sandwiches. I almost never eat them at home or anywhere else for that matter. We did a considerable amount of saltwater fishing when we both lived in Seattle and I don't really remember how it came to be but we never went out for a day of fishing without our PB&J.

Pistachios are definitely addictive. Like Abby from NCIS said, "Have you ever seen anybody eat just one?"

If I get a bag of them, I don't stop eating them until the bag is gone, no matter how big the bag is.
