I was wondering how many guys have a First Aid kit in your tackle box ?

I got one,and luckly didnt have to use it so far.

Always have a tube of superglue in my box... best fix for line cuts and nicks. Drop of superglue on the cut, and it's like a 2nd skin. Peels off in the shower and then redo it the next day.

For sure...
The kit came with pain tablets, anti vomiting and diarrhea tablets so your fishing trip doesnt have to be a shitty experience !

Masking or insulation tape for elastoplast. Toilet paper for swab/cotton wool and a hip flask of Jack Daniels for antiseptic and anesthetic - and the real stuff in the car!

Shot! Superglue is a winner! And to those who think it's dangerous to use on open wounds, think again. Superglue - (Cyanoacrylate) - is used widely in Cardiovascular surgery, where surgeons actually glue opposing vessel membranes together, rather than cause more damage of soft tissue through using staples and sutures. S'true!!

I Always have some cream and plaster in my tackle box(R&S) and then I carry an emergency Hydration kit with me when I am wading.

SAfish · « **Reply #16 on:** July 18, 2012, 10:07:54 AM »

I have one on the boat (compulsory) but don't have one for R&S. I think I should get a small one like Homies and add Kallie's self med kit.
