The fishing gear. 8-)
Everything else is just sundry support equipment.

Well for the camp side, I usually first make sure everyone going has a comfortable chair and even put in a couple of spare fold up stools.

Went on a trip once with someone who had forgotten theirs and he spent the entire week either just using someone elses and failing to get off it when the owner turner up or sitting on our esky, squashing the lid and making it pain to get drinks all the time.

Generally leave something behind on each trip but have never left without my stubby cooler, grog (beer, bourbs, Bundy) or fishing gear.
Just instinctive I guess.

The very first thing I put in the car is my Bowie knife (7 inch blade and razor sharp) followed by 50m of nylon rope. Next is the snatch strap and recovery gear, not that I have much as yet. Beer? what on earth would I do with the smelly stuff, yuck!! The very best stuff (and we take lots of it) is chocolate. It comes in blocks and also in shakes. What more could one ask for? Beer? oh yuck!! yuck!!! spew!! Oh, also take good solid fold up chairs and lots of matches. Never leave home without the Bowie.

Couldn't say it comes down to one item, a tents no good without a hammer or axe to drive the pegs, a table needs a chair, a stove needs matches etc. I keep my gear in boxes in the trailer, and over time, have gotten just about everything covered (hence the need for a trailer) ;).
