[clabby 14]

well i have made 100s of purse nets the past few years and i now need another long net so im going to make a 25yrd net when my goodies arrive. how many meshes will it need and how much time does it take to make on average i can make a 3ft6 long net in around a hour if thats any help and help would be good thanks

I'd go 14 meshes high and its up to you but i'd try for 100% bagging so your aiming for 50 yards of net .And dont worry about the spped as one slipping knot and the nets no use
