Tire patch kit -

Most times you can fix it without taking the tire off, which is a lot better than emptying your vehicle to get at the tire change gear (and you avoid pumping fix a flat in there, which doesn't always work and makes a mess for whoever tries to do a proper patch).

1 oz. gold KASTMASTERs are a great shore fishing staple and easy fun for all. (I prefer over Crocodile - for its high speed retrieve option)
I always size up on fishing line as well.
Oh yea, Reel Lube and Grease. Especially if you bring small spinners.
If you go with the 'zodiac', bring a really useful net.
Many fish you can grind to the boat while trying to keep em out of the rocks (save lure and fish--that$ a good thing)..
BUT, a lively sierra, corvina, or small dodo will be happy to CLank off the side of the boat with a mouth full of hooks.

HaVE a GReAT t!ME !
-GrouPEr

I go with a 12' aluminum(transom wheels a must) / 15hp 2 stroke Yohnson(70 lbs?) / shoreline trailer/Same size wheels(spares) as truck... it can go more places than my 4 banger ford Ranger can. . spent $1,200 on it)
You can fish 2 adults / stand up / throwing iron...
....food for thought....
Its been FUN, Convenient and
WAY WAY (did i say "WAY") worth it.
PLUS, I can get it in the water in 15 minutes,

If that picture of your "girl" is who you are bringing, let me know when you go to Baja so I can stay the hell out of Mex!

Spend $150 on a speargun, extra shaft and rockpoint. You will never go hungry. Nor will you ever tire of swimming around looking down.

That's okay I like fishing with a hook. Most of my fishing you would never be able to use a spear gun .......
