One of them fishing shirts with a bunch of pockets will be handy too.
Another tip, dont know what kinda reel you are gonna use something along the line of a Zebco ultra lite with a button on the back. I remove the button as to not bump it when I get a fish on. Most have a switch that will release the spool and let it wind backwards letting out line and then lock back once the desired line is out. When you are fishing cover and have to shuck your pole back seem like that button will get bumped alot.
