Teesdale-rabbiter 15 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 Spun polyester is the way forward! http://www.agouti-nets.co.uk/shop.htm Quote Link to post
max abell 196 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 4FT or 3.6 min spun poly in canary yellow day glo yellow or white easy to see lasts for years but if you are just starting up 10z nylon are quite a good net and last for years when you feel ready have a go at making your own nets you will make mistakes to start with but practice makes perfect so they say and there is no greater feeling when you see that rabbit hit a net you made yourself GOOD LUCK MATE Quote Link to post
tb25 4,627 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 have a word with long netter of here he sells and makes all diverent types Quote Link to post
longnetter 32 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 Thanks for that tb25 Yeah I would say that a nice heavy nylon is good for a beginner less tangles/ hassle/pains in the 5rse and about 3'6" long is a good all rounder . Once you've got a bit more experience (and money ) you could start looking at other materials and sizes ATB Quote Link to post
