Toilet Paper Storage

Swede · January 24, 2007, 03:18:02 PM

I think most of you carry some in your boats - if not I don't want to fish with you

. That's not the tip - but storage while in your boat is. Tired of using toilet paper that is squashed flat from being stored on a zip-lock bag? Me too - I saw another fisherman using one of those empty margarine tubs you get out of the dairy section of your local super market. The one you want to get is the one just a little larger than your full TP roll - is that 32oz? I think so - if not it is the next larger size. This tip will keep your TP roll dry and undamaged.

Great idea Swede

Then I can use my dry bag for my rainsuit again

Those new plastic folgers coffee cans work great oo, though there is that smell of coffe you would get where the sun don't shine if you don't wash em out real well.

LOL yep very true and i tell you i love those folgers cans i use them for alot phone wallet etc as they are water proof and will float if they fall over or god forbid the boat sinks.

It also works great for keeping mice away from it. Took mine out of the duck boat to find it chewed to shreds. We alos put it in the tin cans in our outhouse at my family's cabin. It works great.

Swede this subject is close to my.................... heart, but. I have to ask you, what exactly is it about a flat roll that rubs you wrong?

??

LOL....................

we have about 11 of them at the hunting camp.....after a long weekend of hunting, everyone's farts smell good to the last drop!

Being a non-boater I carry mine in my tackle bag in a zip-lock baggie. It is always smashed but I don't care as long as I have it

.
A lot of women I fish with have small buckets in their boats just to pee in...

hesjustbassin · January 30, 2007, 08:19:04 PM

That is an awesome tip.

I'm using this one for sure.

Oh - I'm just particular about my poo paper. Did I mention I like my salad dressing on the side, my garlic toast lightly salted, and my beer in a designated mug versus a bottle?

j/k

Okay Swede, I'm lurking you! After my picture post........

Scary thing is, except for the beer ( I don't drink....... but I do BUY!) We're a lot alike!!!!!!

'-{Dang good idea, I always just use my T-shirt

bassn1 · March 31, 2007, 08:39:17 AM

I always use Cottonelle Fresh wet wipes. Cleans better than dry paper and comes with it's own waterproof container.

Here's another possible solution...www.safetycentral.com/chtogotrtoti.html

C'mon guys, man up. Just hang this anywhere in the boat. No worry about getting wet or squashed!!

Uncle Versus always said you could plant as much corn in a crooked row as you could in a straight row!

I just double bag it in good Ziplocks

! Wet TP bothers me much more then a flat roll and flat rolls don't take up as much room as a container!

RichmondVa · January 02, 2008, 03:43:30 PM

Another idea for this would be a short piece of pvc slightly longer than the TP roll itself. One end w/a regular cap and the other with a screw on cap. Completely waterproof and crushproof. I read this tip in a saltwater magazine.

Raincloud36 · January 03, 2008, 01:59:26 PM

I have mine in a zip lock bag and have never worried about it but the ideas on here are all great. I have a number of Folgers plastic containers that will now have a new use.
I'm not going to worry too much about the coffee smell though. When I need the paper the last thing I'll worry about is my butt smelling like coffee.
