View Full Version : Cast nets
Buying my first cast net. What should I be looking for and what is the most appropriate size to begin.
I've checked out the tips section to investigate casting methods but have had a lot of trouble downloading. May someone can assist as to where I may access such info or alternatively just get out there and do it?
Cheers WoW;D

Just buy a 9ft net with instructions and then play in your yard until you can get it right

A few ways to look at it.
If you're chasng prawns... a top pocket net is advisable.
If it's just bait, then a bottom pocket net is what you're after.
I find monofilament nets to be the best, and s a beginner... somewhere between 8' and 10' should see you doing quite allright.
Practice is the key and there's also instructions on how to throw a cast net in the tide guide.
