    I'm not sure on the mesh size come to think of it, I know it's a 6z gauge though and 100% bagging but we dont get massive numbers in ours. Definitely going to try night time netting though sounds a fun way of hunting!

    Mr Sir Rob the nob to you matey ?
  3. Robtheparttimehunter1
    Haha I'm not sure mate I never filled the paperwork in, she said I'm such a nob I should have a sir at the beginning of me name ??

    I just like to mingle with the peasants now and then ?. Me sister bought me a square foot of land that has an entitlement of sir thought she was funny !
  5. Robtheparttimehunter1

    I'm far from an expert pal, never claimed to be one either ?. Pic looks a nice place to hunt mind

    I can assure you my glasses are not rose tinted they are generally very clear ?, I understand your point but like I said it dosnt seem to be a problem we experience in either my pals commercial quick sets or my traditional long net. As I said though we dont get alot of rabbits in the long nets most are caught with the dogs or the purse nets, the long nets are there for a last line so you lads who catch loads of rabbits in the nets are more likely to have bouncers just because of the numbers alone.

    Ahahahaha more chins than a chinese phone book lad ?
  9. Robtheparttimehunter1
    It certainly looks a skill mate, I best get better at setting the net in the day first mind me pal still laughs his chins off when I'm struggling hahah

  12. Robtheparttimehunter1
    I was just talking about it with me pal last night funny enough we are going to give it a bash soon cant wait ?

    Hahaha maby I've just got good nets ?. TBF most our rabbits are caught with dogs or purse nets, as I said above I've never been long netting at night, we use ours when ferreting so you been a hardcore longnetter probably have a much larger number to compare off, but it is very rare we have a rabbit bounce off our long nets like I said
  14. Robtheparttimehunter1
    How much are you looking for matey?
  15. Robtheparttimehunter1
    Trammel nets just look a carry on, I've never used one mind but I thought the whole point in them was to help stop rabbits that bounce out the nets? Honestly it's very rare we have rabbits bounce of of our traditional long nets or quick set nets so I couldn't see the benefit of having them for the extra carry on.

    Hi all, I'm looking for recommendations on long net anchor pins. My 25yard tradition long net has a pin with a large hoop on either end, I was looking for something similar or alternative for my new net please? TiA, rob.
  17. Robtheparttimehunter1
    I've just got myself another 25yrd long net funny enough and I think me and my pal are going to try abit of late night long netting in the dark with them mate.
  18. Robtheparttimehunter1
    I've never actually hunted with just long nets at night, we use them when ferreting and my pal uses quick sets
  19. Robtheparttimehunter1
    Me to they just get in the way when your carrying all the ferreting gear.
  20. Robtheparttimehunter1
    Seems that way, the quick sets I think are much easier to set and work with, but I hate the baskets and I just like the old ways more sometimes
  21. Robtheparttimehunter1
    I was just looking at a purse net harness and thought that might suit a couple of long nets without me having to butcher me nice jacket haha
  22. Robtheparttimehunter1
    Sounds like a good idea if I can get it over my layers haha, I'm over in Teesside bud
  23. Robtheparttimehunter1
    Haha I look trampy anyway pal
  24. Robtheparttimehunter1
    Haha no I set the net as I walk it out, I currently store it in the burgean till I'm at the set but it's a right ball ache lol. I like the pocket idea mind
  25. Robtheparttimehunter1
    Thanks for the advice mate, I wasnt sure if you meant drive stuff into a net lol but I do drive a motor. I've got a traditional long net about 25yrds, it was gifted to me for a little job. Before that I used a quick set, I've been using the traditional net with hazel poles afew years but I'm very amature I just cut the poles the way the keeper told me to and set it how he said to but it's a right carry on running it out and me hinting pal laughs his head off as I fumble about haha but I like it. But carring it in my bag and farting about holding the net hanked on the end pin and the
