When camping by the side of the river or on the shore, I usually bring along extra implements like fishing gear. But when it is an overnight affair, the flashlight (torch) is the most important to me especially when the moon is out at night. By the way, night fishing would also require the flashlight. For boating or fishing, I never fail to being along my utility pot - as I had posted in another thread, this utility pot is a small metal pot that can cook rice for 2 people, also good for cooking soup dishes.
