cutting a net or not?

[B.P.R 2,798]

what ye talking about tomo? i ordered the net before you recommended advanced netting. i looked on advanced nettings websitr and seen nothing about 'rabbit nets' so went with the safe option and ordered netting from brinded.

 

ive counted each mesh not each knot. its 30 meshes.

[B.P.R 2,798]

just had another look and laid the netting out.

 

17 meshes

Lol if we are picking at straws then is actually 15.5 meshes the drop will be around 60 inches but you must remember you will loose most of this because the sheet is 200 yards STRETCHED length.

I bet your right tomo, a mesh is knot to knot.

Spot on.

 

It takes two rows to make a mesh. Think of it like this when making a purse net and you make your first row on a ring you have half a mesh, it is only when you make the second row do you have a full mesh.

 

He needs to count the meshes to know how much net he has, but as he seems to be having trouble counting to 15 I think he should give that a miss.

I reckon 12 to 14 mesh is plenty for a longnet so your no that far out

Have a look at the pictures in the make your own quick set thread, and you can see how much the high drops as you pull the net out.

 

[B.P.R 2,798]

ive looked at that thread loads of times and hadnt even noticed that.

 

i see what you mean. pictures paint a thousand words.
