i found some burlap bags! and cheap too.. Michaels arts and crafts store had some (22X35 inch i think it was) burlap sacks...they are for stuffing and making scarecrows for fall but they would work great...and are only 1.99 a piece!

You also might want to try using them as fish baskets-just keep the top above the surface and drop the fish in the bad-also the fish will stay alive longer when you head to the cleaning station-guide at Amistad named David Ross used this trick-use at least heavy trotline chord threade through the burlap for closure

I just use a 5 gallon bucket with a bunch of 1/4 holes drilled around the bucket. Need to put a weight in the bottom to keep it down, and I reuse it everytime I go back to the lake. Easy and last a long time. Find them anywhere.

I get mine at the feed stores. If you have some place buying pecans, they might have some to sell you.
