  1. the nets that look like wool are probably spun nylon, and I wouldn't use the one's with key rings on.
  2. he may of had a lurcher pup with him, but I reckon he must be a towny. If he's not a towny sorry but you should know better than to shout out when theyre ferreting.
  3. thanks for that ,I'll give it a go,like you I think I'll keep it to use myself dont like to sell any nets with a weekness in them, cheers thenetter.
  4. hi there,couldn't get out today so dicided to make a couple of fox nets.I make a lot of rabbit nets but i thought I'd see how the fox nets looked.I get to about three foot long, and when I reached the end of the row, I found that I'd missed a mesh - - - - - - -.now I cant remember the last time I made a cock up but it has happened. The thing is I know I should unpick the row to the missed mesh, but I couldn't bring myself to do it. what do you guys do when this happens, I wish there was a quick fix ??.
  5. as nothernlite says single knots o k, but make sure your knots are tight.
  6. I start my three foot six nets with 12 meshes,increase 1 mesh each row to 15 meshes.from then I continue doing 15 meshes until Ive reached 18 rows.Then I decrease 1 mesh every row, until I get back to 12 meshes. makes a nice net,may use abit more twine, but its worth it.
  7. Hi there, my lakeland is fifteen now, but the last three or four years come xmas time for about a month, she loses her hair off her back. I get a months supply of soloxine tablets, and it sorts it out.
  8. if your ferreting on a snooker table it's got to be 4x nylon,other wise spun nylon,spun polly and hemp, theyre all good. its horses for courses.
  9. someone will snap his hand off.
  10. thanks for the advice. only cus I've got plenty of 2mm and 3mm think I'll do what jamesmc suggested 2mm at the top and 3mm at the bottom, cheers everyone.
  11. Im making a 50 yard long net out of a strong but thin spun nylon. what thickness draw cord would you all use,Ive got 2mm and also 3mm. your advice would be appreciated thanks.
  12. hi there, everyone has there own ideas of which nets to use, but I think if your just starting ferreting unless your ferreting on a bowling green I'd stay clear of 4x nets.It may put you off ferreting for good.

  18. Hi there, yes you only need to single knot spun polly, but be warned if you dont make sure your knots tight, they can still slip. a t b paul
  19. Hi there, start on the ring with 12 meshes,add a mesh each row to 15 meshes,then 18 meshes of 15, then back again to 12. makes a nice net, a t b paul.
  20. hi there, I've got 2 kilo balls of 2mm braided draw cord if it's any good to you for £15.00 collected. I'm in Prestatyn. pm if interested paul.
  21. one that you put at the entrance of the hole that say's come out with your hands up.
  22. could'nt agree with you more,now everyone can decide how much a net is worth by checking the width aswell has the length of their purchases.
