jf1970 328 Posted November 28, 2011 Report Share Posted November 28, 2011 Im looking into buying a quickset long net. Something like a 50yarder. Where from? What z? and What sort of price do i want to be paying? Any help is much appriciated . . Many thanks. can't give you any advice on price or where as i'am over in ireland, but i use a 6z 100yrds, when buying make sure that it has 100% bagging, that means for every 1yrd there are 2 yrds of net, you probably knew that anyway, atb in finding what your after Quote Link to post

HarveyTheHunter 6 Posted December 1, 2011 Report Share Posted December 1, 2011 yess i never youse it either but still its better than nylon by a long shot! but some people like to use it this is why i sugested it i should of mentioned that was its downside Quote Link to post
lksopener 105 Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Harvey you getting confused. Light gauge nylon for purse nets is rubbish. There is nothing wrong with nylon for the long nets. Liam Quote Link to post
Tiercel 6,986 Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 (edited) Go for 6z not 4z it won't last. I think you are mistaken there! I have nets here in 4z that get used every year that are over 20 years old. All be it they are full of patches where they have been bitten through, but there again they catch rabbits.

HarveyTheHunter 6 Posted December 3, 2011 Report Share Posted December 3, 2011 but nylon catches on stuff!!! i hated it and all the other ferreters i know hate the stuff aswell. to be fair i like doing it all tradishinal so i use all the older stuff not like factory procuced crap Quote Link to post
ferretertom 7 Posted December 7, 2011 Report Share Posted December 7, 2011 but nylon catches on stuff!!! i hated it and all the other ferreters i know hate the stuff aswell. to be fair i like doing it all tradishinal so i use all the older stuff not like factory procuced crap It depends on the thickness of the stuff 4z is very thin and matchine made i am not keen on these but they do last and catch rabbits i find they also catch ferrets too!most of the time anything over 6z i find very good and non tangleing and doesnt rot so its a deffinate cert for me. Do they use polyester in long nets? Quote Link to post
