auld salmon 28 Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 have been using red & yellow spun nylon net for last 2 month and have decided there the way forward as easy seen from a distance & not much chance of losing them also if youve got them were you cant see the hole as long as you can see the top of net you know if the rabbits bolted so am going to buy some bright coloured stuff at game fair this year last 4 balls were a tenner each dose anyone agree or disagree about coloured nets Quote Link to post
