long netting

[thehunter69 1]

Hi all, I am pretty new to hunting and thinking about buying some long net very soon, I am unsure of what size nets to buy with this been my first time using them I no they come in all different sizes etc, shold I be buying a say 27 yarder and and 50 yarder to start off with????????

 

also is there a nack to folding or rolling them up to stop them getting tangled up??

 

shit questions but i am just unsure .

cheers folks

I think the best bit of advice i can give you is have a good think about the land you want to work. What i meen is this.

 

If your only going to net a small warren whilst ferreting then theres no point in buying hundreds of yrds of netting when a pair of short 25yrds will do the job. same as if your wanting to work a large woodside edge at night then 2x 25yrds of netting will be a bit of a waste of time, imo

 

so like ive said, firstly have a good think about your needs

it would be wise to get yourself a longnetting dvd first to watch, as you dont "roll the net up" but gather it up on the end pins, unless of course you want a quicket longnet, it which case its loaded into a basket,
