I think the better question is = Have you ever remembered everything?
I cant recall the last time I had everything - Heck I even forgot the prizes for an event one time and relized it after 45 min. into the drive.

See Ya soon,

 GDF Al you and I think alike. never forgot fishing rods or fishing equipment. But I have left at home FF, seat, radio( on the charger) camera. The seat wasnt a big deal. The other items? It basically sucked. I have never forgot my kayak yet though. :smt006 :smt044

After two consecutive  season openers for white sea bass  where I forgot a piece if gear(paddle, fins), and with my wife just sick of bringing me my gear, she made me make a list.   So I was stoke to pack everything and checking things off the list.  I get in the water, and its just a beautiful day with exceptionally clear water for the spring.  I reach out to load the first of my four bands...and the f@&$ING things arent on the gun.  Just then I remember that at the end of the previous season I'd taken them off, vacuum sealed them and stored them in the freezer. 

Came home to being called a dumbass.

Paddle once.  I use a check list, and as I go thru it I put the stuff on my yak.  Can't forget then when its all laying there.  I was at ARW when another yakker noticed he forgot something after unloading everything, so I said; go get it (just in town) and I'll wait here with your gear.  Less than 10 minutes he was back, and then we geared up and underway.  Don't remeber if we caught anything other than a nice day.
