The FISH wall bags, size Large, make perfect rope buckets. I use one for my lead line and one for the haul line, each a different color.

The FISH bag/bucket has a large opening that makes stacking the rope much easier than the A5/TNF designs. I know, I've used both.

The FISH bag is also lighter and cheaper. It has a bomber clip-in loop and a vinyl bottom.

IMO, using the A5/TNF/BD designs is a waste of money.

I'll think I'll just use my rope hooks that I already own. Thanks for the help.

I use the A5, but I think I'll try the Fish bags cause the name is cooler.
