^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Depends on what your hunting buddies have.
Don't skimp on waders, a good blind box/bag, and a decent headlamp. I don't spend to much on lights because I drop a couple every year. A place to go that will kill ducks is usually handy.

If you're going to be in a floating blind, warm bibs and knee boots will be fine. And hand warmers are on clearance right now so grab a couple packs. Stick em in a pocket of your coat to warm your hands, stick em in pants pocket if needed. A buddy heater is great to have if there isn't a heater in the blind or not. Also good in a deer blind on a cold morning. A good pair of polarized sunglasses for those bright days. And don't overlook taking snacks with you and a thermos of coffee.All I know is that the blind is an old pontoon boat and it will be located at Woods Reservoir.
