what must you have?

What is the one thing you must have while out fishing besides a pole and lures?

Brains

A reel is helpful as well.....

Seriously though, where I fish, a guy cannot narrow this down to just one thing besides a rod and something to throw, if they want to fish safely and effectively that is...

I ususally tie my main line to a barrel and then to my leader and then to my snap. I need to start makin them ahead and have them ready when bluefishin. Pain in the a__ trying to tie them in the dark especially when it's raining.
