    Tunny,nets are 100 metres,3-5/8 mesh which have a depth of 14 foot when rigged,got them so big as an insurance,we intend to put them off the beach,and set them from a mates RIB,used nets a lot when I lived in the north-east for salmon and sea-trout,this is my first year fishing for bass,but as the actress said to the bishop"Better too big than too small" I will post some pics when I have caught in them

    Tigers,scary fish mate,seen a few brought in with the nets,based in Hong Kong for years,regular as clockwork one would come each season and take a few swimmers/divers,authorities brought in Vic Hislop from Australia,he failed to catch the fish but stated it was a migratory shark which would most probably continue to pick off a bather or two annually as it came up the coast on its migration route,like I said,scary fish How much did your trip cost?How much for the charter?
