Well on Ebay the best I could find was 20 quid for 10 nets.

 

I'd definatly say hemp is the best material. Nylon tangles so fecking easily its unreal. As long as you hang them up to dry after you have used them they will last ages.

 

Why not have a go at making some yourself? There is a tutorial somewhere here, I'l get you the link.

Yeah same here, but on ebay you dont know if they are hand made or machine.

 

i would try and make them myself but i can see it all goin horribly wrong with hemp allover the living room

i have been ferriting for 30 years and mainly use spun nylon nets and have just bought some 5 foot heavy nylon nets from jbs nets advertised in countrymans weekly or google thier website, having all types of purse net over the years these 2 types of net are head and shoulders above all others hope this is of use to you as i have wasted loads of money over the years on rubbish

4ft 10z purse nets are 10 for £15 from JBs nets , my hemp stayed in the bag in the shed nearly all last season and only came out on big jobs.

£30 for 10, 4 foot hand made nets is very good price mate considering the every mesh is hand made, your getting quality and the with the cost of twine taken out you can't grumble (providing its not 4z or 6z nylon ) Have a hunt through the pages their are one or two boys on here will sort you out. Hope this helps .D.
