Plug Bag Shampoo Bottle Inserts
 

Here are a few photos of shampoo bottle inserts for surf bags. I use two different sizes of bottles depending on the bag and size of plugs. I also keep them in my plug totes. Cut off top of shampoo bottle and poke holes into bottom of bottle - punch the holes downward from the inside of the bottle to facilitate draining. You can mix and match different size bottles to different size bags. Wrap the bottles together with duct tape.

I use tennis ball cans..........

I'll be saving the shampoo bottles moving forward. I'll also have to check into the tennis ball can supply at my folks place.

Nice idea..Thanx DZ..:thanks:

if you or anyone in your house uses contact lenses then the large saline solution bottles work well,there a good size for most plugs.

dz is it safe to say you like fins and needles?;)

Fins and Needles - Needles and Fins. Title of a chapter from the Snowstorm Blitz. You guys know me well. Lots of history in those totes.

Hey Zeno - I don't play tennis but I was my hair A LOT:laugha:

DZ

Bingo...same here!!! It doesn't hurt that the neighbors kid is a pro at a country club here on L.I. :kewl:

I use duct-taped PVC...
to each his own...
as far as fins and needles...
works for me :D

Good idea..... I just put the trash out....I'll be back in a minute..... going out to the recycle bin.

I have been known to use empty caulking tubes..... as I seem to have a seemingly endless supply...

i'd be willing to bet...that you could purchase some empty tubes
from the tube manufacturer....

How do you know DZ was at the beach??

Thanks DZ, much betta idea and stronger than plastic water bottles.:btu:

I wouldn't use the clear shampoo bottles, they don't seem as sturdy as the others. In fact I have about 15 suave bottles I decided not to use. If anyone wants them, PM me and I'll send them to you.

And just go to any tennis club for the tennis ball containers. They'll collect a whole bag for you in no time... even used tennis balls if you can figure out what to do with a hundred of them!

Was that you I saw going through my neighbors trash ? (haha...):thanks:
I do the same thing.

they do sell them my buddy get them all the time I will have to ask him where and $$$$

I use the T- ball containers in my totes..A case of containers fits in a milkcrate perfectly..
I have to do this as i wash me head with a facecloth..
No shampoo here...

So, you fish BI... Much.... :)

The shampoo bottles work great. back in the "old days" we use to by old gas mask bags at the Army Navy store and use the shampoo bottles for the plug inserts. Seems what comes around goes around over and over

All this time I thought I was just cheap. I didn't realize I was just old school.:D

Maybe you folks aren't aware of it but we do offer the inserts we have made for the bags seperately at very reasonable prices. It may not be worth the trouble of making your own. Just thought I would let everyone interested know....

I used an over the shoulder duffel bag from Benny's with two Plano boxes in it for years...
Into the duffel went the korkers, the Plano boxes, my fish rope and coat, wading belt and thermos full of "Fishing Tonic"
(Fishing Tonic was concoction of coffee and four crushed up No-Doz tablets and about a dozen teaspoons of sugar - meant to sharpen you up and get you ready for a bit of the ultra-fishing.)
I'd chug down my tonic, march through a private neighborhood on the double time, suit up, and fish like a motherchucker.
All the gear in the world pales in comparison to an obsessed skinny guy.

I'ld agree with kadir

very reasonable price, for the -people who don't play tennis or have any hair to wash

NIB has had no hair before any of u punks...
NIB does not do tennis..
An don't make NIB hip check u head over heals..

Fellows,
Poland spring water bottles with the top cut off work real nice and they are very light. Have one of my Dad's gas mask bags that works good too. Blue collar ingenuity was passed down to me by Pop.

PS. No tennis and no hair! LOL
