This thing is a beast; way too huge for me. You'd need to throw it off a tall pier or battleship. Probably not even legal in Florida. Details...

radius: 15 feet plus (but under 16'). Yes, that means over 31 feet across.
mesh: green mono, 1.25"
draw lines: 32
panels: 6
weights: small lead barrels, every 4" (probably 3/4lb per radius foot)
condition: Very good. No holes.
price: 50 bucks firm

If you can't figure out how to throw it, you could make it into the biggest Christmas tree in the neighborhood.

Gary -
Is the mesh size suitable for baitfish or is it a mullet net?
Thanks

Steve, it is mullet size mesh, between 1 and 1.25 inches unstretched.

Can be converted to legal 14' in about one minute (Gather up mesh at the horn end & zip-tie to horn. Presto - it's shortened!).
