When you say permanent set, do you mean like a quick set net? TC Quote Link to post
ferretfatcamp 21 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Yes quick set nets bought 2 at 25 yards and 2 at 10 yards always getting tangled had to cut them down . Do they do then in 6z What price for would it be for 2 nets at 10 yards and 2 at 5 yards delivered cheers Quote Link to post
smithie 2,443 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 If they don't have the ability to tangle then there not as affective.. I would buy the same again and don't cut them down, learn to manage them a ltitle better.. Quote Link to post
garbs 90 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 I agree with smithie I've had a few quick sets but one was absolutely crap the rabbits bolted into it and bounced off as if it was a tennis net.just placed an order with nelson nets i here there the bees knees.

Tiercel 6,986 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 I just cannot understand what you mean by tangled? Do you mean rubbish in the net as that is easily solved? other than that it is impossible to tangle nets. Could you put up a photo of the nets? TC Quote Link to post

ferretfatcamp 21 Posted September 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 I keep the nets in a proper net basket the nets get tangled and the bottom string lifts up takes ages to untangle and still not perfect Quote Link to post

If a net is hanked up please tell me how it can tangle? Each loop on the pin is set in sequence then they are tied in place. True it is possible for the loops to pass through each other but because the loop is anchored in place at the root of the loop they will just pull out. Unless of course it is hanked wrongly. To be pedantic they do not tangle a rabbit they enmesh it TC Quote Link to post
lllluke1 329 Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 Have you still a video of how to hank a net TC? The same way you taught me. Bought a 25 yard net of Ebay once and it arrived in a ball with pegs attached, took about 2 hours to sort out. Quote Link to post

garbs 90 Posted September 29, 2016 Report Share Posted September 29, 2016 WOW didn't think this would end up into a spelling or pronunciation contest as I'm a newbie to this site and don't want to ruffle any feathers what i can suggest is a little advise goes a long way..i have been ferreting for over ten years and have learnt put the nets out in a practical way and for the most part they will come back in the basket the same way you laid them minus a hick up or two. if those of you are concerned about your gear rolling around and causing tangles why not strap it down or store it properly ? 1 Quote Link to post
