Tips for Preparing for Your Next Fishing Trip

If you’re new to fishing, you’re probably excited to head out onto the water and potentially reel in your largest catch yet. However, it isn’t that simple. You should contact Clemens Insurance Agency, serving Parsons, KS and the surrounding area, to get your insurance situated before you go on your trip as well as pack your boat accordingly.

Extra Clothing

It’s possible that you’ll get wet or muddy. Obviously, you don’t want to sit miserably while you’re supposed to be on an enjoyable trip. Therefore, you should pack at least one extra pair of clothing. Bringing a hoodie and a pair of warm pants isn’t a bad idea if you’re going fishing during a time when the weather is unpredictable or will eventually get chilly.  

Rain gear

You never know what’s going to happen when you’re on the water. You could go out on the water and it starts raining. Rather than sit in the rain, you can protect your clothing and keep dry with rain gear. 

Extra Water and Snacks 

While you probably already thought about packing food and water for your trip, you might not have considered you should pack extra. If something should happen while you’re on the water, you don’t want to get stuck without enough food or water. 

Fishing License and Boat Insurance and Registration

You never know exactly what will happen when you’re on the water. You could run into the game warden who wants to see your fishing license. On the other hand, you could get into an accident on the water and need to have your insurance information to exchange with another boater.  

Contact Clemens Insurance Agency, serving Parsons, KS and the surrounding region, to get a boat insurance policy before you go on your next fishing trip by calling 620-421-9999.
