How to make a cast net by hand, Nylon, Dacron

[@danielduckett4763]

I've watched almost all your videos they are very helpful information the only thing you really didn't cover is the string that goes down how do you keep it in line to where it doesn't affect

[@danielduckett4763]

The wideners I am having a problem with it being off-centered

[@mikeusina73]

The string is called the tail, you have to have that to complete each row, 904 217 7974

Mike I have a question that relates to size of twine. When I get 18, 15and 12 nylon will the 5 pound sinkers go to a different size maybe higher if there is one?

[@louisoyugi837]

I meant 5 ounce sinkers.

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!

[@mikeusina73]

Thank you so much for the nice comments, if I can help let me know.

@@mikeusina73 thank you, Sir. Will do

How do you measure the width of panels in a net

[@mikeusina73]

Sorry, but I do not make panel nets.

@@mikeusina73 i thank you very much

[@AriefSilva]

Sir,would you please donate some of your castnet to Indonesia?

[@louisoyugi837]

It was getting the strain going arond to look for twine it is not very much in good supply. I could find a size 6 and 4 and not a 5. The sizes are not that well up in store. Also sinkers h are pricey no wonder how easy it becomes for one to make ones own sinkers..

[@mikeusina73]

Sinker molds are hard to find, I have them on ebay, Palmer # 476, Memphis net & twine has the price on sinkers.

You always say tie 41 of these, I think you should say tie 42 knots or loops. I understand the 41 is the meshes between knots and the 42nd mesh comes when you tie together the right side of the last loop to the left side of the first loop. When you say tie 41 of these, people think you mean knots.

You are the first one to make a comment on this subject, thanks for your time.
