What do you cook in? I am thinking about taking cast iron to the woods.  It has good even heat transfer, even when the heat source is not even.  But it the weight bothers me. Is there something lighter and good?

I'm guessing you are a fisherman and want to fry fish, correct?  If not, I wouldn't take a cast iron pan at all.  I take a simple teflon coated fry pan for bacon, eggs, pancakes, biscuits, etc.

I do fish but primarily for meals and not for recreation.  A teflon pan is fine for simple pan frying.  However, mostly I cook fish in foil.  I may also poach them.
