LoneHunter 3 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 Hi, I was wondering if anyone had experience making there own purse nets? Is it difficult? Are there any decent links out there on how-to? Thanks, Jack Quote Link to post

pie-eater 377 Posted September 8, 2013 Report Share Posted September 8, 2013 (edited) I learned through freedomofabirds vids http://www.youtube.com/user/freedomofabird . Its not hard just expect to make one or two cock ups on your first couple of nets and don't give up. Edited September 8, 2013 by pie-eater Quote Link to post

northern lad 2,292 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 I made the mistake of trying to learn from a piece of paper with sketched diagrams that I got with a net making kit,ridiculously difficult....the various you tube vids are the way to go if you don't know someone to show you,my ferreting pals buy theirs,but theres much more satisfaction in making your own plus it beats watching crap on the tv all night Quote Link to post
gnipper 6,411 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 I got a purse net kit from agouti last week and soon knocked up half a dozen after watching his vids on YouTube. 1 Quote Link to post
