As the old saying goes, You cant put a small net on a big hole... Not all the nets Ive got are this size, horses for courses, but Ive got enough nets now, so any I make have got to be good enough to sell on to friends.

My nets are 8 10 12 14 few rows at 16 then 14 12 10 8. I only recently started making shaped nets but they seem to work just as good as the 15 wide straight nets I was making.

[The one 8,588]

all my nets are twenty meshes wide four foot long We are in this game to catch rabbits no scrimp on twine

[theferreter 311]

my 4ft shaped nets are started of with two rows of 8 increasing all the way up to 4 rows of 17 then start decreasing back down to 2 rows of 8 my normal shaped nets are 15 meshes wide by 21 meshes long

A good shaped net seems to catch and hold as well as a straight net. You still have the bagging where you need it.

Ive had two rabbits in my nets a couple of times and once three , when we go out i had twelve shaped nets in my bag and when we finished netting all the burrows it was the shaped nets that where left in the bottom of the bag the guys cottoned on to them quick , and ive seen them blowing off a hole you wont get that with a nice big net
