happydigger 13 Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 been out a couple of times with them,had quite a few fish its getting the knack of throwing them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rexdigger 54 Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 if you can get the hang of them they are great just watch where you use them as i found out the expensive way make sure the bottom isnt too rocky as when you retrieve the net if it grabs one you will know about it lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
