I've been looking to buy a burlap sack to keep my catch in for about 6 months now.  I've been to Home Depot, Orchard Supply...and nothing.  They have burlap but not bags.   I checked Walmart.com and they have a pack of 12 for $39.56!  That's about $3.30 each.  I only need one or two.  Anyone know where to get these on the cheap?
Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Bait shop, especially near the coast. HMB, for sure.

If there is a coffee roasting business around you they get the green beans in big burlap bags -- they usually give them away. Bicycle Coffee in Jack London Square in Oakland often has them available.

Cheers,

Yup, coffee shops are the way to go. Just not the major chains like Starbucks. Buy a coffee and I'm sure they would hook you up.

Pretty sure I saw them at Denios last Sunday. Weren't looking for them but I think I saw a pile of them. They are at the place that sells tools, knives, gloves, garden stuff, etc. The very big stall is located near the front left area as you walk in from the main entrance.

They have them at Ft. Ross Store, but I could not get the gasoline smell out of them, no matter how many rinses.  Not sure what the deal was, fresh paint or insecticide or something.

also can be had relatively inexpensively and easily in small quantities off ebay. 

In the bay area, I use Sweet Marias for green coffee (home roaster) and have them throw a couple in when I order supplies.

I get them for free at the local garden supply store.  They are previously used with coffee beans and used as packaging for water features. 

If you can't find any let me know and next time you are up in ft Bragg area I will grab you a couple for free.

The charm of fishing is that it is the pursuit of what is elusive but attainable, a perpetual series of occasions for hope.  ~John Buchan
