[cool][blue][size 1]The military issue bags have got to be better made and longer lasting. I have been playing around with everything from the equipment bags sold in sporting goods stores to laundry bags to mesh shopping bags from Wally World. All will work.[/size][/blue]
[#0000ff][size 1]The one thing you should provide for, if using a mesh bag as a fish basket, is to get some rigidity in the sides to hold it open. Plastic rods or rings will do it. And just making a ring from the swimming noodle will float the bag next to a float tube...or out in the water if fishing from the bank.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]By the way, you can make some pretty good crawdad traps out of that stuff too.[/size][/#0000ff]
