Well made mate looks great well done

Making your own is not only a lot cheaper but you can make them to your own spec It also gives you so much satisfaction to know that you made the nets you are catching the rabbits in yourself We always use polyester but there is so many good materials to choose from GIVE IT A GO But on the other hand if making your own is not for you there is some good quality nets out there on the market but shop around for the best price and quality though

If the nets catch on any crap they dont purse properly If the place you intend to ferret is local to you try and get over there a couple of days earlier and clear the crap from around the holes you intend to ferret if not local try and do it as best you can when you get there but be a quiet as poss
