Heavy Duty Contractor Grade Trash Bags. 3 mil I believe
Insanely useful and versatil thing to have!!
Use as floor covering, tarp, shelter, water carrier, food carrier, sled to pull stuff, poncho
What other uses can you think of?
You can heat water over your camp fire and put in the bag to use as a water bottle to help keep warm.

I have roles of the clear 55 gallon drum liner trash bags. Also could be used to collect moisture.
Dig a fairly large hole in the ground.
Place a cup in the bottem of the hole centered.
place the bag over the hole loosely alowing the center of the bag to droop over the cup.
wieght the edges of the bag with stones or other heavy objects.
When the sun comes up the heat in the hole evaporates the moisture in the dirt and then collects on the bag, which then drips into the cup.
Whala clean drinking water!

Plastic bags also make great catfish traps...poke a bunch of holes, put a little cat food or whatever stink-bait you prefer in (I've even used droppings as bait)...wait a couple days, and snatch the bag outta the water...I've caught catfish like this since I was a tyke.
Be sure to nestle your bag in some shoreline rocks...they love hidey-holes...

I was in a situation where I had to fill eight, 5 gallon buckets of water everyday and transport them over dirt roads in a PU truck. Filling the buckets from a creek was hard enough but they had no lids to hold the water in on the trip back. I solved the problem by placing a trashbag inside each bucket and using a smaller bucket to fill each 5 gallon bucket with water. I then tied the trashbags shut and there was no spillage on the trip back!

Nitehawg,

Hey TUO, good thing we weren't talking about traps, huh?
:D
And maybe Billy Bass could serve as a fish lure if his parts worked underwater and could fool the fishies. That would be a sight.
:D :D

Dear Diesel,
Yep, I have those bags and a large thick plastic ground carp.
Not only can they hold water to a great degree, but they can be used to obtain water, both from rain and from dew when they are spread on the ground.
