Help In Finding Net Maker

[Rhys Williams 3]

I bought a long net in the midland game fair and want to buy more to fill the basket. But I've lost the card I was given with their details. They had a small stall just selling long nets a father and son company and the father was doing talks in the ring about ferreting and displays on setting up traditional and quick set long nets. Any info would be great as I want to buy more nets. Sorry about the lack of info. Thanks

was it the Guild of Netmakers?

 

next to NOBS

I dont think they sold any nets on the day tho

If I understood the father doing the demo in the ring he developed the quick set net. I don't know if it makes a difference but the first and last poles are white? Don't know if they all have that or it's just there nets.

I think it was Brian Brinded after looking on his website. Thanks!

Rhys, i understand you want nets from mr brinded, i too have had nets from him... but take the advice from smithie and contact nels0n. you will have a better quality net at probably a better price and you will get it a damn sight sooner .

[Rhys Williams 3]

Is he on here?

[johnrthrfrd 223]

Nelson on here is the man for long nets his nets are first class at a good price wouldn't go past him.

[Mr Wilkes 2,989]

He is yes.

[Rhys Williams 3]

Ideal thanks I'll have a search for him. Thanks for the replies.

It's NELSON I'm sure but if he sees this he may pm you.

 

 

 

So did Mr Brinded invent the quick net system, iv heard this a few times now and once I'm sure from horses mouth on his youtube via, never had nets off him, enjoyed parts of his vid and nothing against him, but did he invent the quick set.?

He claims he did along with a few others.

 

Have a look at the net in this painting painted in the 1600's by a Dutch artist, if that is not a quick set I do not know what is. There are no bridles on the net and it does look as if the net is just held up by the pegs.

That's a good find of a picture. It does look like a quickset! On Brian brindeds website it says "so after some serious trial and error he developed the quickset long net". And I remember in the show him mentioning this as well.

he also reckons he invented the drop and tremmel net, in my eyes fisherman where useing tremmel nets before he put pole on a tremmel net.
