The Bucees bags are the right price, but too small unless you cut the kingfish in two.

Costco in San Antonio has some cool soft sides that are a good size for $25... they are leakproof.

I've had my eye on this one for $29.97 + $8.00 shipping.

These are nice and larger but do not meet your $50.00 budget

I got the one from Sportco, works great and beats paying over $100 for a fish bag. Also I use a HEB softside cooler when Im out trout fishing. Works great for $4.

how well does it hold ice? i was thinking of getting one of those Boone bags off of eBay like they sell at bass pro. every once in a while i see the 19 x 58 one on there for around 50 to 60 dollars, but that's a little big even for an AI. 40 x 16 would be a little more manageable. plus i don't plan on keeping that much fish.

I like the 24 can igloo rigid cooler, they hold two 1 gallon containers of water and make a great seat when you stop out at an island.
$20 at HEB

If anyone has an Old Town Predator 13, the Coleman 70Q fits in the back perfectly. Made a live well out of it for tournaments and can use as a regular ice chest for other days. Put 3 rod holders on and I'm good to go!

I like that idea with the bigger cooler. I'm going to have to see if my 50q igloo fits on the Jackson.
