I always take SUPERGLUE. It is in my bugout bag also. You can't beat it for an "instant bandage". It fixes lots of stuff, too.

A length of strong rope, some nylon twine, and a roll of duct tape might come in handy.
Ask me about the Professional Bowhunters Society.

You mentioned going with a few friends, that means make sure everyone knows exactly what they are responsible for.  And double check each others list before you head out, nothing worse then not having a rain fly because someone else brought the tent and forgot.  

Also I would bring enough food for the four days just in case you don't land any fish or turkeys. One of my favorite things about canoe camping is you can bring a cooler full of meat and as long as you use a 7 day cooler you can have steaks and burgers all week.

Otherwise bring everything you would on a four day camping trip, plus KEEP ALL YOU GEAR IN WATER PROOF BAGS AND TIE IT TO YOUR CANOE OR KAYAK.  Can't stress that last part, people bring water proof bags but forgot to tie off are still screwed as they watch their gear float down river.  

Have fun

rezeen, I bought those bags when you were pulling girl's pigtails in school but the big green one is from LL Bean. I'd imagine a wilderness outdoor shop would handle them or try to google them online. The big one holds all of my clothing and sleeping gear and the small one food stuffs and other incidentals. The ammo box holds my keys, wallet, medicine, knife, tools, etc.

One thing I'd recommend is a pair of knee high rubber boots or maybe a pair of waders to have in the boat in case you can't get all the way to shore (it happens).

If one or more of you wear glasses, take an extra pair. Hard to find lost glasses when you can't see to find them, especially if you get dumped in the drink.

Man you guys are good or all of you have had bad mishaps in the wild LOL. OK so first I should have said we are gonna be in a couple boats with motors add trollers not gonna turn them on unless we have to. But you can still turn them over been there done that. I gotcha on the food thing we will be taking plenty. I will be checking everything with a list before we leave and I will have one of the guys check me on my check list. I really want to go have a good time and not have to worry about anything. If all else fells I can have the wife bring us anything we forget you can get to the river access in so many places (every mile or so) Come on with rest of the list this is good stuff.

Water or a purification device,fishing and hunting license,Aspirin,Motrin,foot powder,and a fire ring w/extinguisher if you on a boat should be no problem.Arizona is dry

Weather radio to check on how much rain falls upstream, watch out for flash flooding, ie don't camp on the sandbar or gravelbar if you can help it.
