I am in need of a dry dry bag for use in duck blinds and in boats. Camo not required, but cannot tolerate bright, loud colors. Economical (read: cheap) is preferred. Any suggestions?

Any bag you want with a doubled trash can liner in it, I have a neoprene duffle bag that I keep a change of clothes in trash can liners. I needed to use it a couple times after falling in checking my traplines by canoe. I always carried it stuffed under the seat of the canoe so it wouldn't float away if I turned the canoe over.
After the first shot the rest are just noise.

We use the 10 dollar plastic ammo cans, preferably the ones with the rubber gasket. I've gotten away from dry bags.

Walmart sells a decent dry bag cheap. I've got several. If color is a big issue just put it in a camo wrap. Even a cheap camo T shirt can work fine.

Thanks for the replies. My old PVC-coated duffel is no longer reliably waterproof. I have tried a couple of plastic "dry" boxes, but they leaked even though they had the gaskets. Trash bags will of course work short term, but are hard to find things in. Perhaps I could just use them for select items, like extra clothes. Will give Walmart and Seal Line/Sea to Summit a look as well.

Bags pack much better than boxes as well. Be sure to PM me with the location of all your duck spots. Just in case of emergency, you know :-)
