If im going out for the whole day, i pack a lunch and dinner plus snacks. All of the options mentioned above at some point or another. For a whole day hunt, im bringin the stove too typically, and will carry a Mountain house meal, plus a hot chocolate pack or instant coffee.
Doing this will help me stay out there till dark, instead of walking back before dark. If its only a half mile to a mile from the road, i want to be out there till past the end of shooting light before even beginning to hike back to the truck. Full belly, warm coffee or hot chocolate also helps. And whatever IM brining, its always going to be food I like/look forward too. Weight isnt as much an issue on a hunt like that, so bring what ya like!
