3Ft 6 Spun Poly Nets

[tomas 9]

I am making some 3ft 6 nets but I don't know how many rows of what to do iv got meshes and rows for 4ft nets ta for your help ta tom

[tegater 789]

21 x 2" rows

[tegater 789]

15esh wide should be ok

[tomas 9]

Ta how many meshes at its widest

[malcy 2]

21 x 2" rows

15esh wide should be ok

as previously stated above the only thing i can add is if you want shaped nets start with 9 or 10 meshes on the ring and add a mesh every 2nd row untill you reach the desired amount of meshes then do 4 rows then reverse the process then tie off on the ring

[malcy 2]

It is a personal choice about widths but i normaly go about 15 -20 if you want a wide net a good average is about 18 meshes wide

I usealy start with 8 and go upto 17 then 4 rows of 17 then back down which makes a 4ft net and I want a few smaller nets as all mine are 4ft

Yeh it's personal stuff, I start around 10 or 12 on the ring,, and go out to 16 - 18 but I add on at the end of evry row,, and I would use a 2.1/8 mesh board,, or a 2. 1/4,

Hi there, start on the ring with 12 meshes,add a mesh each row to 15 meshes,then 18 meshes of 15,

then back again to 12. makes a nice net,
