I’m mostly a saltwater guy, so I’m coming at this from a slight different angle, but many of my items are the same.

1. Stripping Basket- Every once in a while I still forget this, when I do I usually end up spin fishing because it’s just not worth the hassle to fish without one.

Matt, the N80 is a heck of a camera (I just got rid of one after buying my D70), but be careful picking one up on ebay:

Zach, I’m in southern New Hampshire, and I mostly fish the salt, usually for stripers & bluefish; although I do make the occasional road trip down south of Cape Cod to fish for false albacore and bonito from the jetties.

Zach, just fyi- the Nikkor 12-24 is widely regarded to be about the same quality as the Tokina, for about 2x the cost.

As for the advantage of the 12mm vs the 18mm- it’s a lot more than you’d think.

Zach, if you’d consider a non-fisheye superwide, you should take a look at the Tokina 12-24.
