My BOG Tripod below worked great. My fleece head pullover kept me warm for hours on stand. In the picture below we were standing in water. You must be prepared.

Hunting in bogs of Newfoundland I found water everywhere, even in the grass and tundra in the bog below. Even trees and leaves were soaked with water.

If it looks like a field, the field had 6 inches of water on average. Slogging in an inferior boot will cut your hunt short. And not wearing your waterproof bib rain suit will soak you to the bone. I made some poor decisions too. I did not wear my rain bib and jacket on one morning and got soaked by water soaked bushes. My gloves were not waterproof and riding on the back of an ATV my gloves absorbed 1/2 cup water in each glove on a morning hunt. Get water proof gloves! My back pack was too heavy. With a guide, I did not need a large or heavy backpack. A walking stick gave me balance.

Below my most prized must-have accessories:

BOOTS – Buy  best high calf waterproof boots with good tread

RAIN GEAR – Heavy duty green waterproof rain bib like Helly-Hansen and water-proof jacket too.

Layered clothes.

Shooting sticks or tripod. 

Walking stick

Waterproof hats

Thick Fleece Camo Face mask pullover

Very sharp knife.

Hand warmers. 

My phone camera.

Yes a good rifle and cartridge. 

Accuracy is key!
