You guys ever tried them? I just bought a 4 footer w/ 1/4" mesh, 1.5lbs of lead/foot.....saw the videos and they had ladies throwing 10 footers 40' out with ONE ARM ONLY
SOLD!!!!
anyway had to get something, lost my 5 footer this week at the launch, got stuck on bottom and only about half of it came up. Then went to get the other off of the big boat at the marina and it had mysteriously walked off by itself...geezus.....
Anyway, any feedback on this net, anybody ever thrown one?
i should have mine in today sea dawg...I'll let you know how it goes I'll be the redneck throwing it in the rain in the front yard..... YEEEE HAAAAAAAA
nothing to it....didn't see the instructions when I got it out of the box, still managed a perfect throw on the 3rd toss....came with 26' of throw rope, need to put more on there....you can easily throw it that far w/ little effort and one arm. Not a big deal for inshore purposes, but might be nice to add some more for blue water purposes....

Is this in the instructions....if so, I don't believe my son did this.
not yet...just saw that when I was reading the instructions this morning...
yeah mudducker, it's in there. Says to do it twice a year whether you use the net or not. What confused me is that he said he does it in the same bucket he uses to 'keep' the net in, and his bait.......
I don't see those shrimp/minnows holding up too well in a bucket that's been saturated w/ fabric softener.....but then again....I won't be using that method regardless...
hey guys think yall misread the paper it say to soak over night the pour out the water and softner wash out net good hang to dry..Then use the bucket to store net in lol the way i got it was then get another bucket for your fish and bait lol im soaking mine now and goint to keep in bucket to keep it from getting tangled
Has any one tryed their net yet im looking for mullett and any thing else that get in it just want to throw it good...Its soaking in the baby sofr downey now for what ever that does but the man makeing money off us so i did what he said..
they done got me again!
