Going To Start A New 25 Yard Net.

[Tiercel 6,986]

This afternoon I tried new knots with the twine. First off I done half a dozen rows of a double loop instead of going around the upper mesh once I went around it twice. Same results the knots were moving when side strain was put on them. Next I tried a Carric bend and while the knots did not move I did have 3 frictions snaps of the twine, so that was a no no. Lastly I tried after making a single knot making another bight on top of it, and it has worked, I really have put some side strain on the knots but they have not moved.

 

All I have to do now is get my head around doing two knots instead of one. That will be hard.

are you going to try a 5 yard net first this time?

Nope the plan is dive straight in with a 50 yarder, but when I will start it is another matter, and when or if I will end it, with all that double knotting is again another matter completely.

Tiercel if weight is the issue (and double knotting!), have you considered dropping your height down from 15 meshes, and sticking with a twine closer to what you know?
