The problem with long netting is that you cannot have it both ways. Each of the two mains ways of setting a net have their drawbacks. Apart from the lack of veristility of the pre-set net the main drawback is the basket that you have to lug around with you. That said, a 50 yard net is the same volume and weighs roughly the same weight, no matter what system you use.
Each system has it's pluses and minuses it's up to you to decide what system suits you. But, without trying both you will never know.
