Rabbiting man 1,191 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Been looking at the bonded nylon is it any good. In my honest opinion I would not use it. I has to be double knotted, the diameter would only suit long nets and as it only comes in white it would have to be dyed. This is where the problem lies. If it was hot dyed it would shrink the problem is how much? On the up side when it does shrink it pulls the knots tighter. TC Thanks thought I ask I stick to spun ploy & spun nylon.

Sirius 1,391 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) I like the spun poly that's about in various dayglo colours, makes a nice net and easy enough to knit with. Thing is non of the twines are made with rabbit /fox netters in mind, so it's just luck that it suits are needs! Edited September 10, 2013 by Sirius 1 Quote Link to post

Tiercel 6,986 Posted September 10, 2013 Report Share Posted September 10, 2013 So what weight spool is best to get . The 1.2Kilo spool @ £14.95 including postage seems good value for money, if you were making a longnet you would get around 200 yards of stretched netting out of that. Thats what I will be getting. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/8s-SPUN-POLY-STRING-TWINE-HUGE-1-2KG-SPOOL-RABBITING-FERRETING-PURSE-NETTING-NET-/271238738254?pt=UK_SportingGoods_Hunting_ShootingSports_ET&hash=item3f2716b14e TC Quote Link to post

Cheers j Nope the one in the link is just a smigeon thinner than agouti's long net twine. It is not in my opinion suitable for purse nets. For making purse nets this is the best twine out of the samples I received. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SPUN-POLY-STRING-TWINE-500gram-WHITE-RABBITING-FERRETING-PURSE-NETTING-NET-CORD-/271238699254?pt=UK_SportingGoods_Hunting_ShootingSports_ET&hash=item3f271618f6 TC Quote Link to post
