I do.  Must be a good idea:  My completely anti-gearhead, totally stubborn
paddling buddy Gary (he's from North Dakota -- it's cultural) poked fun at
my use of THREE mesh gear bags, until the day I made ONE trip across 100
yards of deep, deep sand to our campsite, to his SIX trips!  I was casually
lolling about, sucking down my second beer as he completed his last gear
ferry.  Next trip, he had *two* gear bags.  Snork!

LL Bean seems to have the best ones.
