Not necessarily, they are nicer to handle, but not always the best catcher. As the post above, it depends who made them.

Just a few of the handmade nets I have made. All double stranders.

 

100 yarder before adding the selvedge.

Nice nets Tiecel, plenty of bagging in those and that's what makes a good net,that and the man setting it.

To be honest about 3 months off and on Just doing a bit when I felt like it. I always try and tell people don't go looking for the end of the net just plod on and it will be finished sometime. That net started life as two ten yarders but I just picked it up when I had an hour spare and it was surprising how quick it built up in the bag so I just kept going.

I have always used sheet netting, but then, that white double stranded does look the dogs Bollocks.

[Tiercel 6,986]

The double stranded stuff is no better in the day than sheet netting. In the night different story, as you say, "it is the dogs bollocks" IF set correctly.
