For the boat a push pole. I use to never wear a life jacket but I’m getting smarter and wear one in the dark now. To many logs and obstructions in a river. The blind bag is different.

Change of clothes in a waterproof bag. Only used twice in decades but a wonderful, possibly lifesaving "must have".

Light bag, crushable clothes with the air squeezed out, is quite small. In my 10'6" mod v glass boat, no problem with 24 dekes etc hunting solo.
Wading waist deep in January, I stepped into a beaver/muskrat channel and went in over my head. By the time I'd changed my wool pants were frozen stiff. Picked up the rig and motored out. By the time I reached the truck my teeth were chattering uncontrollably. Don't know what it would have been like without dry clothes.
YMMV.

Head lamp, coffee, face mask and gloves, ammo specific to the gun you are carrying ( uh... yeah), a seat to keep you sitting comfortable out of the water/mud, calls, camo neoprene for the dog if it's extremely cold and she's swimming a lot.

I would think of the plug in the drain hole first. That one will only happen once.

Luckily I realized my mistake before leaving the dock, but I did have to pull my boat up on the trailer and sit in the parking lot for 10minutes to drain it out before trying again.

your Lab!
I've never left him behind but I have forgot to put the plug in. Luckily it wasn't too far from the launch point.

I find a decoy hook pole about as handy as it gets. I hunt alone most of the time and it makes picking up decoys a snap. I guess you could put a duck bill on the handle end and have a 2in1.
After the first shot the rest are just noise.
