auld salmon 28 Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 My favs are all 24 long, 20 wide. What length are those nets if they are 24 meshes long...????? SINDASOX on a 2"meshboard 48" or a 21/4" mesboard 60" Y.I.S Leeview Would a 2 1/4" meshboard not give you a length of 54" at 24 meshes. Quote Link to post

whin 463 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 i start with 12 work to 18 back to 12 most nets are a metre to 4 foot and if you have a good dog you dont have to worry about rabbit getting out of hole or second rabbit as they usaly peg it and if not pressure it into back netting itself, been showing a few lads lately the delights of making gate nets purse nets or poke nets double enders , and other types for fishing good hobby.y cant beat hand made nets only takes half an hour and its done better than all the 4 6 z stuff Quote Link to post

Malt 379 Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 The nets I've got here are all four foot, and for the most part work well. Sometimes I wish I had a good few smaller ones though. Lots of the places I ferret are thick with blackthorn hedges and setting the larger nets in the tighter spots is a nightmare..
