Comment posted What To Include In A Fishing First Aid Kit? by Fireman.
You should check with the state that you live in under the Department of Natural Resources. Even the coast guard web site maybe able to help. You need a fire extinguisher, life preservers, flashlight, and first aid kit. These would be some ideal items to have.
1. Blanket
2. Disposable Latex Gloves
3. Scissors
4. Tweezers
5. Non-Adhesive Pads
6. Gauze Roll & Gauze Pads
7. First Aid Cream
8. Eye Wash
9. Cold/Ice Packs
10. Adhesive Waterproof Tape
11. Adhesive Badages
12. Bandaids
13. CPR Mask
14. Alcohol Wipes
You can go to Wal-Mart and check in their pharmacy or sporting goods department for a first aid kit. I know they sell them. If you want to get fancy and order where I order some of my things, you can try: www.galls.com

- rubbing alcohol, bandades, neosporin, maybe a pocket knife?
- pliers, band aids, neosporin, aspirin, gauze, tape, and maybe some Jack Daniels
- Get him the new rapala x-rap for sure and a few softbaits and others baits. BE ALSO SURE TO INCLUDE WIRE CUTTERS SO IF SOMEONE GETS A HOOK STUCK IN THEM YOU CAN CUT THE HOOK AND PULL IT OUT THE OTHER WAY. And the other usuall stuff like the guy above mentioned. Hope he likes it.
- you know the usual
hooks, sinkers, a bobber
but if you want to give him a real suprise go and buy a couple of floating Rapalas, even some brand new fishing line, or if you can swing it a brand new fishing pole…b/c fathers day is coming right up and I know he would just love that - I can’t put together an entire kit for you, but you might want to include bug spray, itch cream, wire cutters (I seen a kid get hooked in the eyelid once. Not good), sterile bandages, rubbing alcohol, hand wipes, gauze, sport tape, some extra beer, glow sticks, whistles, fire crackers, lighters, hot pockets… stuff like that.

- Can You Be Suide Or Charged For Using First Aid?
no you can not be sued if you are rendering aid to someone that is injured (the burning car). there is a law called the good samaritan law that in laymans terms says if you render aid to someone and that person can not sue you for aiding them. good luck - Can You Be Suide Or Charged For Using First Aid?
if you are First Aid certified you can’t be sued. There’s something called a Good Samartian Law that protects people, the important thing to remember is not to anything you’re not qualified to do and if the person is conscieous ask if you can help them first. - Can You Be Suide Or Charged For Using First Aid?
There are many laws protecting a bystander giving first aid. If there are no trained professionals around, and they won’t get there in time, then yes by all means save the person. I would rather not be able to walk than die. If you want a better answer, I suggest talking to an ambulance administrator. I think if someone tried to sue you in this case, the judge would probably throw it out. Be sure to ask about a good samaritan law - Can You Be Suide Or Charged For Using First Aid?
People can (and will!) sue for just about any excuse- including some that are flat-out stupid.
But yes, there is a good-Samaritan law out there to help protect against that particular kind of litigation. - Can You Be Suide Or Charged For Using First Aid?
Yes, you can be sued for providing aid to a person that winds up injured because of your good efforts if you weren’t properly trained.
There are good samaritan laws to protect people who are only trying to help, but you have to read them. Sometimes in some instances they only protect First response physicians and emergency crews, and not the everyman.

Its great your considering safety aspect while fishing, most anglers i know carry a first aid kit, some don’t. I do and here’s the basics you need, scissors, heavy duty wire snips, allow you to remove a barbed hook by cutting the hook at the shank instead of getting it out by the barb, anti bacterial gel, aspirin. I also carry some of thishttp://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templa…
Other things of use
Body stapler kit
Bandages.

A good thing you never know what you will need in the way of FIRST AID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Man o man the best thing you can do is to go to the sporting goods store and just buy a small first aid kit they make them that can be mounted or put in a storage box some are even slightly water proof. Everything is there band aids, little packages of neosporin, maybe tweezers, aspirin just everything he might need just get a small one like six by eight inches. Wrap it up for him with a little bow on it . Fathers day is Sunday what a great gift.

I think that it’s really nice of you to do that. I go fishing all of the time. Other than the normal first aid stuff, I think that the best thing to include is a pair of small pliers. If he is going to use barbed hooks, he will need them. If he were to get hooked, he wouln’t be able to remove the hook very easily if he doesn’t have them! Good luck!

I buy the ready made kits from walmart and add to it.
12 feet of twine
mirror
magnifying glass
2 lighters
compass
knife
hooks
split shot weights
a few jigs
cyalume sticks ( glow sticks)
dental floss
Needle and thread
bug spray ( I spray it on napkins and keep it seperate from other things using a zip lock.)
I fish alot in strange places and usually alone so I have to be prepped with the basics. This might not be good for everyones needs but it works for me in my neck of the woods.
