Gang:

On Friday I got lots of sample fish bags from Mid State Plastics:

www.midstateplastics.com

This weekend I experimented with the different sizes and thicknesses for use as water treatment and storage bags in my PSKs.

The 3 mil 5 x 12 inch bag seems just perfect. When you twist the top closed, it's exactly the same size and shape as a 1 quart (1 liter) pop bottle, so it's easy to estimate when you've got a quart.

The 2 mil bags seemed more than rugged enough, but the combination of the perfect size and extra thickness made the 5 x 12 the winner in my estimation.

They're not set up for online sales, but if you call them, they're friendly and helpful.

I've ordered a case of 1,000 of the 5 x 12 inch bags. That should be enough to last me a lifetime.

If anyone wants a few of these, I'd be happy to share them with you. Just send me a self addressed, stamped envelope, and I'll put some in and mail them back to you.

Email me off-forum and I'll give you the address to mail to.
