The twine being used is of a crossbraided multifilament twine,, its just a different type of material than the spun nylon/poly or the useual z twines that are more used at present,, because its braided and not a twisted twine it should pick up very little debri whilst out in the field..

Personally i thought it was a valid point to bring up for debate,, after all theres a helluva lot of these preset nets doing the rounds, .So which methode i

There is nothing hard about netmaking , dont get me wrong but reading books e.t.c. isnt the way forward!! the best way to learn this art (which imo is a skill ) is to try and get a Lad who is willing to teach you,, I have personally teached many a person this so called secret art ! not so much secret but different ways in the art of netmaking!! fek if i can do it anyone can!!! but at the end of the day always respect your tutor!! coz there is a helluva lot more to learn regarding knotts e.t.c..Regards a maker and user of nets.. All the best to the tyro netmakers......REGARDS NETRIGGER.........
