Re: Cast nets
if you have patience you could fix it yourself there is a little plastic tool maybe one of the pros with the computer like CE could post a pic but if you want it look the same need to pay i fix my nets all the time .

Re: Cast nets
The tool is called a net shuttle.
I repaired a cast net of mine using bridal veil instead of going through and making a panel of monofiliment to use as a patch.
Cut the bridal viel to the hole size that needs repair and tie/knot it into the existing net with thin mono....just make sure to add a drop of super glue to your knots and cut their tag ends as close as possible.

Re: Cast nets
Normally I like to fix everything by myself, but because Im having a tough semester in school I really dont have the time or the patience to fix it, how much would you charge.? The net is pretty much "like new" exept for the 4ft long gash ( ) that looks as if it was cut with a knife....but if you want it look the same need to pay i fix my nets all the time .
Funny thing you say that... A buddy and I actually found the net inside the boca inlet about a year ago, we had to jump in to "save" it..Next time you get your net gets stuck just go in and get it instead of ripping it. Goodluck

Re: Cast nets
Interesting.... maybe I can build something like that, It looks like weaveing line in and out the netting with that tool would be alot easyer rather than using a long strand of line.... I guess I can give it a try sometime when im freeThe tool is called a net shuttle.

Re: Cast nets
I think Saturday night live should do a skit on the "how to throw a cast net" video demonstration in this URL....if you haven't seen this video...you should. I thought it was hilarious....I was so damn confused after watching....it would keep me from ever throwing one.
Don't get me wrong....I think these instructional videos are great.
I just thought the one on how to throw a cast net was funny.
