lure_learning Posted October 23, 2012 Report Share Posted October 23, 2012 Any of you have experience with Clear Bags? I see they are a site sponsor and look as though they also have better prices than Johnson. I've been buying Johnson bags for years but I'm always looking for a better/cheaper solution. Thanks!

Frank Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 I have used them both. But price was not the reason for continuing to use Clear Bags. Every time I ordered from Johnson bags the price on the internet for shipping was way off. They continued to up the price for shipping so I just stopped using them. The west coast guy Bill from Clear Bags is a real nice guy and easy to deal with. I have gotten samples easily and he went way out of his way to help. The products I have gotten are imported but work well. Frank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabbyBass Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 I have priced them out and Bears Baits seemed to be cheaper if you are looking for the plain clear bags. It was not a huge price difference, but every little bit helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabbyBass Posted October 27, 2012 Report Share Posted October 27, 2012 I buy the 7" x 4 1/4" bags. Bears sells 1000 bags for $82.50, clear bags sells 1000 for $84.00 and Johnson bag sells 1000 for $103.60. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass4Me Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Do any of you have trouble with the oil leaching thru the bags while sitting in storage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
