Mr Mike you make a lost art look easy! Are you still making nets for sale? I would really like to get one of your bag nets

what size is that mesh board in the video?

Another Fine video Mr. Mike. Good to see you My Friend. Take Care, Jd.

So glad your going to do redo some of your previous videos in HD ! Learnt so much from you, just couldnt quite see what you were doing. Would love to see some on tying on the next shuttle into the net and calculating how many wideners to add. Thanks again.

Love watching your videos and you make some beautiful nets i just dont think i have the patience to make a net ....keep up the great videos

Waooooo I’m so glad that I can see you back doing videos I love your videos and now that I see that you posted another video you had make my day thanks so much for what you do.

Hi , Mike and Phil good afternoon. I got worked up a little from trying to learn my casting with a 11 ft 3.5/4 mesh size cast net.. I had the mesh sizes jumbled. I am on the 35 widener row now in making a 7 ft 3/4 to the inch mesh net and after that will be the normal then double line row. Since it is 35 widener meshes it is something less than an inch left to make it 7 ". Got this now neat and all and- can be- won't give me such a hassle to get it casting very efficiently although I will need a remark on my apprentice work. All in all am good and I believe you guys doing fine and better. From what I'm seeing in these KZbin videos thanks these videos keep me up each time teaching me something. Thanks Louis Oguna.

I have been following you for the past 2 yrs and more. Your videos have helped me mastered the knot. Actually it took me 3 months to learn. Thanks you.

How do you measure the width of panels in a net

thanks for my 7 foot net mike i love it

High mike I want that net so bad love your work will message you

Which is better cast net ? Monofilament or nylon

Are making the net for sale ?

Tying the sinkers, keeps to be my deepest iinadequacy with soomee fingers doing slack.

Nice job Mike.

I always just put a lead over both ends of the rope and squeeze the lead in a few places to hide the ends of the rope.

How much would a 15ft net cost that is 5/8 mesh made with dacron?

The worst that I wanted to look at were some mistakes on me older cast net, now I have this and can truly get it. I used to ask myself how would I make a net and not even look at what I had wrong? Now I see I know it it's because I wouldn't have had told the difference. I am so much filled with gratitude. Man I no more assume about making a castnet, guess the kind of way I feel for finally learning how to start a castnet and from You Tube. Mike and Phil, these videos are everything!!

Really enjoyed this video. Thanks for posting. Are the Mullet running yet this year?

Mr. Mike, I am so glad you share your craft. I always enjoy seeing the videos. Hope everyone is doing good. Take Care, Your buddy JD.

Mike, I just found your videos. What a treasure of information. I'm curious Mike, as long as you've been making cast nets, have you ever heard of (or used years ago) the eye of a ham bone used for the neck of the net? I grew up throwing a 4ft cotton net that was made locally in Beaufort SC, and the old guy used ham bone eyes for the neck. Loving watching your videos.

@3:14 1958 "I watched them put that one in." Thanks for another great video, and with history and information. You sir, are a generation treasure.

I have made a few spanish nets. I always bought the bagging from brunson net. I hang the lead line on the bagging and then sew it onto the net. Sew the bag where it meets and braille it. Buying the bagging saves knitting the extra two or so feet extra. I believe the bag I buy has 32 rows. So its more than 2 feet.

I also slice my lead line inside my last lead. I crimp the last lead onto the leadline. Its just how I prefer to do it. Its not better but I think looks better.

I agree the way you hang a net is probably the most important part of net making. I have found the reason for nets not opening fully is most often having a too long lead line. Better to be a little short than long.

This was excellent. Great info and footage

Lots of guys throw bag nets in Brazil. Im looking for one in the U.S, but they are impossible to find. Bag nets are the best for shallow water and its the only style net I have ever thrown

Mike, hello from Texas. Enjoy your instructions and appreciate the time you spend with your video's. Thanks Wesley

Super mantap 👍👉🔔

i will try

How many meshs do you put in one of your 10ft nets? Ballpark

How many rows of mesh loops are usually on a 10ft net?

And if I may add, how does one do the math for the amount of wideners for a net? I'm of the idea there is a probably defined ratio that adds up the sum of the widers to have so that one makes a perfect round net.I am doing the 14 widener which also, as it happens again, is my first handmade cast net to have an idea to make after trying for a year and a half following other means o doing it. I have two others that I had made on a previous occasions to now until I was half-witted. I Love You guys!!! Kudos. And a good job well done.I hope you know where that comes from. And really I went into churh last sunday holy day. I had been away 5:24 having nothing in my hand to give as church offering and tithing and for chuch collection days (which is once every month) that is acceptable bedore the Church. I keep bare faith to have faith it's going to be a thing of the past, I will say. THANKS VERY MUCH.

Hi, Did get me a little drawn aback, the many knots I got when the twine was finished from the needle and I having to tie in a new one after wards from the another needle and rejoin from the one one the netting. I will have to improvise as with the video one. I am learning how to make the loop correctly and from now on whenever something comes up I reaally will make a point of asking you guys. Thanks.

Mr. Mike, good to see you my buddy. Take care .

I'm having trouble with the first to row slipping... Is the entire first row prone to slippage?

Do you have a link where I can find that color and size thread?

thanks so much for sharing your skills trying to build my own cast net your information is so valuable thanks for sharing your amazing skills 🙏

Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Mike. I’m up in Fernandina and have been wanting to make a cast net for awhile. No time like the present, right? May God bless you!

Hai kawan salam kenal dari Indonesia 🙏🇲🇨

I live in the panhandle of Florida and I’m learning how to make a bonded nylon Cassnet. Your videos have been extremely helpful and I would love to come and learn with you.

Mike reminds me so much of my Granddad...same teaching style, tenor, pace...man I appreciate you, MIke.

Muchas gracias.

I pray that then it will get the braille lines tucked in place very alright.

Hello, Mike and Phil. I am still working on my netting technique. There's no hint of finding any bonded nylon here I stuck to the only material at hand: that is normal twine. I have gotten around the problem of its uncurling when I pinch it with a scissor blades. I used to tie 2 knottings next to the place I needed on each side then I would cut inbetween them. I then decided on clear nail polish then I purchased a gas ligher to burn through the nylon preventing it from uncurling. And since the material is not dacron it has a tendency to do slipknots as I'm getting on the wideners. And for the widener I do three knots. One securing the mesh to the meshboard and one on each string of the mesh secured to the mesboard. Three instead of two knots at the expanders. I also do such three knots in sequence all around for the normal mesh..

Obrigadó!!

Minorcans stand up! Triay here, Sanders now though

Hi, I'm a freelance journalist looking for stories in the minorcan community, what you're doing should be shared by more people. How can I get in touch with you?
