PEANUTS! the ones still in the shell...me and my cousin killed a whole bag of them one day, throwing them out the window of the blind and then had two bucks come with in 10 yards of the blind.

I bring apples with me, they keep me hydrated and covers my breath.

I mix 1 bag or jar each dry roasted lightly salted peanuts, walnuts, raisins, M&M's, chocolate chips, dried cranberries, and hulled sunflower seeds
in a sealable container, sort of a home made trail mix. We put it in sandwich bags and stick it in a pocket along with water, probably an apple, maybe a candy bar.

usually a couple clementines, an apple or banana and a couple bite sized candy bars if i'm going to sit all day

Make sure you have something to drink...and then something to pee in!

I have changed my mind and don't bother with a pee bottle any longer especially for gun season.

Thanks Bioguy, appreciated. In deer season we hunt pretty close to home. However, when bear season rolls around and we're gone all day, it's beenie weenies, pudding, hot soup in a thermos, lots of bottled water, a chunk of sharp cheese, cookies, crackers, and a thermos of coffee. Of course this all rides in a cooler on top the dog box, and since you don't always get home when planned, you need to keep plenty of fuel for the furnace. Good hunting, best regards.

thermos of coffee or hot chocolate, water, candy bar, sunflower seeds, fruit.maybe some tupper ware with beef stew or chili
