Would a 2 1/4" meshboard not give you a length of 54" at 24 meshes.:hmm:

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

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.. :(

Anyone use a knot called a carrick bend- i think thats how its prounced :unsure:

Yes :yes: I've been using it a long time before I was told it was a Carrick Bend :thumbs: pretty much fool proof in that it tightens and locks onto itself

Im led to believe that asingle knot will suffice on nylon twines when using this knot

 

Looking for a second opinion

 

I usually use the sheetbend but would learn this knot if there was an advantage :thumbs:

It certainly does single knot on nylon, any nylon any thickness :thumbs: did a few rows with the blue P.E. that they use round show rings to prove a point suspended it from a beam and the lad put his foot in the mesh and it took his weight and the knot never budged :thumbs: he was converted :laugh:
