So who knows what I forgot this year. Tell me some of the things you forgot, only to realize it during your "shakedown" cruise  I know one year, I forgot the net, but most of the time I use a "boga grip" during PSCR so the net doesn't harm fish 
Am I the only one having "senior moments"?
What have you forgotten?

4:30 am I pull out of my slip at the Sunset Marina in OC with 3 crew members. We run about 35 miles toward the rockpile, I slow down and the crew deploys a 7 rod spread. I see a flash in the spread and its fish on
.
Crew puts a 12 pound Mahi on the deck and opens the fish box
who forgot the ice?? We had to take the ice out of the bait cooler and lunch coolers to make it through the day. That was 5 years ago, and I don't think I was considered a "senior" yet. *hit happens and usually at the worst times.
