To make it this far on ALONE Season 8 I had to learn a few new survival skills. Net making by hand is one of them. In this "Net making for Beginners" video I'll show you how to make a net needle and gauge card, then use those to weave a basic net that can be used for many things including gill nets(which allow for passive fishing), landing nets, foraging bags, etc. THIS is your beginner's guide to net making! In past seasons of ALONE, we've seen others use the overhand knot method for making survival gill nets. In my opinion, using a net needle and card is a far superior method. You end up with a much more uniform mesh size and you can make your net inside your shelter. For this video I'll be using paracord to you'll be able to see the net making knots clearly. Primitive cultures have made nets this way for thousands of years and it's a great bushcraft skill to have. I spent many hours in my survival shelter using this technique.

My Great Uncle taught me some of that 50 or 55 years ago. He made his own net needles two. He gave me one but it was lost after my parents moved. Funny, I am 71 now and only recently realized the influence of this man with only visiting him a few times in my life. Take time and give positive influence to the young.

A sturdy trap. The locking latch can be fortified with tie wire for added security. kzbin.infoUgkxxvthjLYk8bJwhOkjNsLvPwnSKZmnHeT1 Try to place these traps wherever current is present. Incoming streams or runoffs that dump into main lakes or ponds are typically good spots, especially if there's a rocky bottom. For bait, use a panfish caught from the lake you're trapping crawfish in, cut the panfish into 3 pieces and soak the trap for 12 to 24hrs.

Now I can do it blindfolded and have taught my son and grandson. The first one my grandson did he made a hammock for my daughter using Madrona branches for the ends. He was proud as punch. He hung it in their back yard between shade trees and presented it to her at a big birthday party. Everyone was impressed.

My brother is a commercial salmon fisherman who mends and makes his own gillnets. The mesh size is critical to your success. Too small and the fish won't gill, too big and they will swim through it. You must know the habits and the size of the fish you are targeting, guessing and hoping isn't going to cut it.

In the old days, men used/ ripped the nets, while women repaired/ made the nets. But every man new how to repair nets in a pinch. We were told to make nets at school at age 13, making them out of Manila twine. Usually were told to make a 5 meter by 1 meter, and then undo them by hand ... just to remake the net...over and over and over. I can still make them, but we were taught to start from the left, go to the right side, and go back left - no flipping the things around to keep going from left to right, left to right, because one can't flip a whole nets just to repair a rip. The stuff we used for our nets was a bit thicker then para cord, and we'd double it up. The rope was usually polypropylene or polyethyleen... heavy stuff compared to bank line :)

My brothers and I wanted to learn this and the first thing he taught us was you had to carve the needle. It had to be so long and be able to hold x amount Of cordage and for the gauge we would use a number 2 pencil - the older round type. Thanks for bring back some older memories.

I made on hoop net completely of net that i tied from twine, #36 size twine. Ive caught my smallest ever and ive caught 3 big 100 pound at one time in that net in a really beautiful spot.

choice of mesh SIZE can mean everything. If you weave 2" mesh netting from the start , you'll have to tie 49 knots per sq ft of netting. If you make 4" mesh netting, you'll only need to tie 16 knots per sq ft of netting. HUGE difference, yes? :-) The large mesh makes it very easy to pass your netting needle thru the meshes in order to tie each knot, too. Now, once you make , say, a couple of segments of netting, 6 ft long, 3 ft wide, you can offset and overlay the 2 segments, sew thru the meshes here and there, using your straightened-out and filed down fishhook as a needle. This will result in your having 18 sq ft of 2" mesh netting much more quickly than making 2' mesh netting from the start. Also, popping those stitches later lets you swiftly return to 4" mesh when you have to resort to gillnetting out in deep water, as the shoreline freezes up. It's far more efficient to make a pontoon outrigger raft, in a day, and use the netting as a seine and net traps set at the shoreline, as vs gillnetting. The traps and seine catch all fish that are larger than the net meshes, not just the size that get gilled, as is the case with netting set only as a gillnet. Empty your net traps by use of the 5-6 ft long handle on the shovel. The guts and blood left in the net traps are not the result of baiting. They are simply the expected by-product of how you empty your net traps, that's all. You can of course assemble or dis-assemble segments of netting into whatever size suits your current desires/needs, and or just keep any surplus wrapped around logs, out of your hair and harms's way.

I had to come back to the video because it went off faster than I was ready because I was really getting into it. I would like to see you do one on the the string that goes straight across and then come down making the net. I've seen other people make those but they don't get close enough to see exactly what they're doing and I'm pretty sure that they're doing the same thing that you're doing on that one. If you would do that that would be great I'm sure you know what I'm talking about if you don't ask me and I'll try to explain it again. I suppose kind of like making a Gil net it would be what I was talking about. Anyway thanks so much for this video it's the first time I've seen anyone explain it and show it up close like you did. Thanks again and don't forget to keep your powder dry.

Such a great video. I've been trying to tech myself how to make a net, and this is the best video I've seen so far. Thanks for the video. I have a question tho. I've been looking for a new Leatherman, and was wondering how you like the one you are using and if you do like it what one is it? Thanks again for the video and knowledge.

The one he uses in alone has a one handed opening mechanism, you can find it on amazon I don't know the name but you can open and close it one handed, wish I'd bought that one instead of the Swiss made one I have..

Btw the one I bought swiss made was over $100.00 dollars, and the blade leaves much to be desired

I really enjoy your videos. I recently made my first net. It turned out pretty sloppy but I’m proud of it lol. I am wanting to start another one with your techniques. I have a question, after you use up the line from your wooden needle, how do you tie more line on? Where do you leave off and start again so it looks clean. One I made my net I made it with solid long line of rope and it took forever threading and pulling the rope.

Just tie in wherever you run out. Use an Albright not or something simple.

Were you able to go back to your cabin on Grizzly Mountain to film this? I thought you were awesome on season 8 and as soon as you got that deer, I knew you would win it.

Would you use a single strand of the inside of the paracord if making the netting as a gill net?

Great video. Question: what's the advantage of using this method vs the way some other contestants on recent seasons have shown of hanging multiple strands and just tying knots?

This is faster, more accurate, and you can do it in the confines of your shelter.

This net seems sturdy enough. Do you have any videos on net repairing. The one I have has a huge hole and I can't catch anything. Any advice would help. # NetProblems

Sheet bend is how i usually join two ropes. If you tie it wrong it becomes a thief knot.
