A Cajun filet biscuit is good hot or cold

 

Huh? Never heard of it

I stop at a convenience store that makes freshly baked biscuits.  Pre-spawn and spawn I’ll usually go with fried pork loin on a biscuit.  Later in the year it’s fried chicken.  Post cold front I might go with country fried steak.  I’ll usually add a second sausage egg and cheese or bacon egg and cheese biscuit depending on the weather.

 

Honestly,  I thought every fisherman did this.

A big bowl of oatmeal keeps me full for hours, and keeps a warm breeze blowing inside my bibs in cold weather. 😁

I get up make make an egg and cheese biscuit, thermos full of coffee. I go to where I’m going to start fishing, I eat and have coffee while watching the day come alive and watch the sunrise.

LOL ~ Fixed that one for you.

On the rare occasion that I'll be fishing all day, breakfast is usually a couple fried eggs and a potato, sliced and fried with plenty of butter and salt. Throw salsa on top of all of it. That's my go to. Quick, simple, and it tastes good. Then I take a banana and an apple for the road. 

 

Edit: I see some of you talking about coffee and the horrifying thought occurred to me that some of you heathens might not drink God's Greatest Gift To Man. So, to differentiate myself from those placing themselves under the judgment of all things Holy, I have added what I assumed everyone would take for granted: 

 

I drink a large thermos full of strong coffee with a dash of heavy whipping cream. Every. Dang. Day. Like God intended. 

For the colder mornings oatmeal; warmer weather frosted mini wheats. If I want or need to be out the door quick it's a couple poptarts for the drive and a couple more when I launch. I usually have some poptarts in my tackle bag but almost never eat while fishing.

I used to stop and get a couple plain crullers till Covid closed the bakery, one during the hour drive, one for sometime out on the water. Since then it’s been a Cliff bar and a couple Fig Newton type bars, and coffee.

 

The bakery reopened early this year, but only Thur thru Sun, and not till 6am, used to be 7 days at 4 am, d**n that Covid.

fermented steel cut oats, with milk or cream, coffee or tea.......  maybe some meat or cheese, fruit. and chocolate.

I usually cook three fried eggs, maybe add some Jimmy Dean hot breakfast sausage. 

 

Once I'm on the water, I have a mix of raisins and almonds in the boat. 

Advil and monster. 

 

 

usually I eat some form of dry cereal with chocolate milk on the side. If the wife goes and it applicable we will stop at Chick-fil-A. I am usually up at 3:30-4am everyday breakfast really isn’t my thing ever.

 

 I try to leave at a certain time but if I don’t make that time no biggie. I hate running on any kind of schedule to much like work.   I get there when I get there I leave when I leave. It’s much more enjoyable for me that way.

Coffee. Maybe more coffee. 

I’ll either do a hardees biscuit with hash browns and black coffee, or my oatmeal mix with black coffee st home. 

Yes. Coffee always

 

or

 

 

I do the same while night fishing

I don't know how you guys drink so much coffee before fishing. I'd have to fish beside the portajon all day long. 

My wife says I'm already a Major Dickason without adding this stuff. 😂

My port-a-John is a wide mouthed Gatorade bottle. Fits right in the boat. And also one of my fishing dogmas is “poop before you get on the boat”, because Gatorade bottle won’t do much to help that.

1 gallon ice-cream pail - after you've eaten the ice-cream of course.

Bears poop in the woods. So do I.

I’ve always eaten light when I wake up early to fish. If I’m busy walking around or wading, I don’t notice being hungry and will happily take the caloric deficit.

 

Usually, breakfast is coffee and one of the following:

- oatmeal

- granola bar

- Cheerios (of the honey-nut variety)

- leftover pizza (if available)

- more coffee

 

I prefer to eat when I get home. If it’s a long trip, I’ll pack some jerky or a pb/nutella sandwich for a mid-expedition pick-me-up.

Coffee. Any food helps but is secondary to the bean water

That’s my MO. I have a wide-mouth Peak iced tea bottle. A little smaller than Gatorade but at this age, it takes a while to fill it up. 
 

“Crap before you cast” is the way to go. I don’t chum for bass. 

Overnight steel cut oats in the rice cooker or if trailering I regularly get the hankering for a chuckwagon.
