[trapper123 7]

HELLO HUNTERS I AM A NEW MEMBER HERE BEEN FERRETING FOR A COUPLE OF YEARS NOW,BUT THE LAND I HUNT IS OVERGROWN SO DECIDED TO BUY 2 X 50YDS LONG NETS BUT I AM NOT SURE ON THE LENGTH OF THE POLES NEEDED,SOME SAY 2FT SOME SAY 4FT ANY ADVICE THANKS

[moses 5]

we use threee foot mate 2 foot is a little short in imo but this does not mean that i am right

[Rolfe 2]

20-24 inches is ample in my opinion, depending on the ground conditions of course, but each netter has his or her own preference about peg length......... so use what works best for you.

good question trapper im a new member too and after not ferreting since i was a kid me and a mate have just got ourselves a couple of jills, ive dug out the old purse nets found a long net a friend wasnt using, and have even tried my hand at making a few purse nets. the long net i got had no poles and have had a job to find them , just bought some of ebay though. next job is to cut and dry some, then the sloe gin to keep the blood flowing on those cold winter mornings if they come happy hunting let us know how you get on

Four footers stick them in the ground which will vary according to where you are then hang the net to what ever height you want and it doesn't bother me theres a bit pole sticking out the top

Three feet poles for me, thats the length they came in We have a lot of sandy soil on some of the land we use, so to keep the tention on your top line we some times have to push the poles in a little more than in solid soil, so the 3ft poles suit the job.
