A clean way to throw a cast net

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

Thanks for watching! Did you learn the perfect cast net throw? Don't stop there! We've got even more cast net secrets on our blog ➡ bit.ly/2GMVWSo

[@melcharbonneau9161]

Ryan, OMG - First try was a beautiful circle. This demonstration was easy to follow and after (3) successful throws in a row, I declare this is the best teaching video. Thank you Mel Central Florida

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

Thanks Mel, glad we could help.

[@thedon9670]

Agreed.

[@skpilot7]

I've learned about 10 different ways to throw a cast net, and this is by far the easiest and most successful way I've seen. Thank You

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

So happy we could help you out mate!

[@thedon9670]

Thanks Ryan, you're a champ. Took me about an hour, but I managed to get some quite nice looking circles for the first time ever! Very happy :)

[@marcusyiu1715]

Awesome! This is the best and easiest way to throw a cast net. Many thanks

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

No worries Marcus, glad we could help!

[@marcoaureliosilva9335]

TOTAL.

[@doddyworks123]

This is by far - the best technique!

[@doncolton7664]

Best demo I've seen on You tube... Thanks

Don Colton thanks Don. Appreciate your kind words.

[@mikefountain364]

Thanks mate. I tried a dozen other methods with no success. Yours worked a treat first time. cheers

[@grandwonder5858]

I've been watching a lot of videos on how to throw the castnet. I must say your method is the best I have ever seen! No need to put the lead or net in the mouth, but yet the net opens perfectly every time! Great job mate!

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

Grand Wonder thanks glad we could help. We have deadly jelly fish down here and the less you touch the net the better! And you don't get covered in stinky mangrove mud which is always a bonus.

[@grandwonder5858]

Yes sir, your method is the best and cleanest by far! I taught my brother your method and he finally learned how to throw the castnet for the first time even though he has one for over a decade! Thanks again mate!

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

Thanks mate glad we could help!

[@SCOTTMEISTER007]

Just learning how to cast. I've seen many videos and lots of methods, this works the best for me! Cheers mate!

+Chris Scott OUr pleasure Chris. Glad to help.

[@janrootham]

absolutely love this technique. I've tried a dozen others but this one is the only nearly foolproof method. took about 3 throws to get perfect circles with my 8 footer. showed it to my brother- in- law who had never thrown a net. in 3 throws he was throwing circles, amazing

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

That's great Jan glad it helped! More fishing tips over at our Ryan Moody Fishing blog as well. www.ryanmoodyfishing.com/blog/

[@mickh4105]

Thanks Mate, picked up a net i haven't used since a i was a kid and followed your method. Works a treat. Hopefully i can now pick up some more live bait here around T'ville....Best way i have ever been shown...

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

No worries Mick. We have a new online course called locating livies course being released in October so be sure and sign up for email updates on our website Ryan Moody Fishing. It will show you where to find various livies here in the tropics which is the tricky part once you master the art of the throw!

[@kelvinlewis2089]

Hey mate starting to watch a bit of your gear and got to say I've learnt a heap already. I'm only new to throwing a net and your video helped me out alot. Thanks for helping everyone out buddy.

@@RyanMoodyFishing I also have some great videos about catching fish if you like it.

[@nicstr28]

My method is similar to that. Learned it years ago from a man from Guyana. He was about 4'10 at most and threw a 16ft net while standing thigh deep in the water. He was pretty amazing with a net.

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

Wow that is amazing.

Thank You! I have been struggling with in-consistency in my throw for a long time. I have tried many different teqniques with so, so results. Your mentioning follow through like throwing a football was a "THATS IT"! moment for me. I grabbed my net went outside and have been trowing perfect circles ever since. Thank you!

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

[@kearvestreams4205]

Legend mate, worked like a treat!

[@EstuaryHunter]

Well after a few test throws and getting full circles with my 10 and 12 footers you've won me. Out with the old method in with the new. Really please I came across your KZbin channel, plus I just registered my interest on your web site for the Barra basics course. Been doing alright in the creeks around Home Hill but the more tips, tricks and knowledge up your sleeve the better I reckon.

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

Thanks so much for your kind words Tony - so happy I could help you :) Hope to see you on the course one day mate! Cheers

[@adrianroggero6702]

Been wanting to know how to do it properly, only find the American you tubers. Thank goodness I have found a tutorial from Ryan. I will practice more. Can I ask a good cast net to purchase?

[@davidgc4396]

Ok thanks a lot Ryan I haven’t tried this way before I have been throwing bananas occasionally get a full circle 😊

[@Enuamanu08]

Great demo mate...will try it out,, thanks.

[@coburnlowman]

Its been at least 10 years since I'd cast one. I remembered the arm motion but had forgotten the net gathering. Everyone I know puts it in their teeth. I've had dentures for many years and was certain my teeth would end up in the water. Plus putting lead in my mouth isn't appealing to me anyway. I have enough problems without pickling my gourd with lead.

[@bildad1234]

I have always thrown the net very similar to you but I rarely get such a nice spread like you. After watching your video I think I can see where I am going wrong. Thank you so much for this.

bottom pocket

[@coachman56]

Excellent,you made it look easy,needs to try it your way. Randy can you tell me where to purchase that type of cast net? Thanks.

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

coachman56 any 5 panel cast net will do the job. The one in this video seahorse brand and you'll have to track them down in you local area. This one is 9foot spread. We have another video here on our channel on cast net types and their application which might also be worth a look before you purchase. Cheers

[@coachman56]

Randy not available in the Fort Myers area in Florida USA.

[@raimotoivanen2386]

method number 20 plus best by far cheers r

[@TRMTHEweasel]

yes its good way to cast not getting wet ok for getting a little bit of bait but if your going out to get some prawns hours of work on one arm you be feeling it, you be working the one arm out so some times you need to get wet to work for hours to even out the net over 2 arms

[@philbaxter6190]

Nailed it first try. Left handed, but wasn't hard to do it backwards so to speak. Good shit for the easy to follow tutorial... Cheers mate..

[@timwadescastnets9395]

nice dry clean technique.

[@timquain5341]

Great video. I have now got it opening into a nice circle consistently. Thank you! I'm hoping to master being able to throw it from my kayak. Prefer to do it in sitting but if that doesn't work I will attempt in standing. It's a bit shaky just standing in the yak without casting but I have trained the cast without moving my feet out on the grass. Do you think this cast would work with less net hanging (instead of 1m more like 40-50cm)?

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

The best bet is just to try it and see Tim. I agree balancing on a yak would make it a bit tricky!

[@CKAStudio]

Best video. After 3 throws i had it thanks for saving me get wet all the time

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

[@jasonironliongreen]

Hey man when you start throwing around the 14 ft range do you think this will still work? I like it it works on my 10 .

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

Jason green we have a maximum size here of 12 but I've only used 9's and 10's otherwise they get too heavy. Sorry we couldn't help you'll just have to try it and find out. Cheers

[@jasonironliongreen]

I let you you know when my 14 footer is ready. That's the max here. I'll try to make a video to see if it works for those big nets. Thanks man!

[@markyoung1496]

Can you tell me what brand casting net and size you use thank you

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

mark young thanks for the question. I think we cover that in our blog and video on cast net types. www.ryanmoodyfishing.com/cast-nets-for-catching-bait/

nice throw mate

[@hotmoffitt]

Nice! Great video!

[@nibbsyalwaysfishing]

Fantastic method, no more being covered in mud for me.

[@candIejac]

Any sort of adjustment needed for a drawstring?

[@ITALIANGTRR34]

candIejac I use this method it works great and my net is a pull string style,just have to watch out an check for tangles before hand and that you don't have ur pull strings tight in your hand that's hold the net you want everything loose

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

+acalarmarrrr Sorry we missed your question. No adjustment needed. I thrown my drawstring the same way.

[@neiljones4202]

Thanks m8

[@hothmobile100]

The luckiest people in the world are those who live in Australia.

[@bundybarramundi]

I go the same technique but go a third in the left hand and a third in the right and use half the effort you’re using to throw it. But whatever works

[@lynnparry768]

Hi Ryan Can you tell me what size net you used please

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

Its a nine foot drop but if you are throwing around gutters use a 8 foot. We have another video on here about cast nets and their applications.

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5CyZWaZfpJ6isU this might help too.

[@ryanoneill3037]

hahahaha finally I found my mistake I wasn't doing the spin with my left hand and I also missed a step...somehow I did alright though. lol thanks mate, sick name by the way

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

I was actually named after the actor Ryan O'Neill - so even though you're clearly younger than me... I was actually named after you! haha

[@ryanoneill3037]

Hahaha Ive had a few people ask if I was named after him too.

[@RikkiTikkiTavi290]

One of the problems I see with this method is if the bait are not showing for a long period of time or it takes many throws to get them the arms tend to get very tired making it harder to throw the net properly and hurting your fingers. This is especially true with larger nets. I prefer to drape a third on my shoulder to reduce weight on my arms. No real timing of letting go of anything with teeth or the second hand, the proper friction to open the net perfectly every time comes from the shoulder, only difficulty is gauging how hard to throw the net.

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

+RikkiTikkiTavi Hi Ricki, Ryan uses a good pair of polaroid sunnies and pretty much only throws when he sees the bait. For bait like herring in deeper water Ryan waits until they pop on the surface making them easy to catch. Perhaps refining your bait hunting will alleviate this issue for you. Ryan generally catches all the bait he needs for a full day charter in about 15 minutes. But each to their own and if that method works for you, for sure keep using it. It's all about what works for you. Cheers Team Moody

[@RikkiTikkiTavi290]

+Ryan Moody Fishing I wish it was always so easy for me. Alot of times in my area we end up looking for bait to show on the surface in deeper water. means alot of standing around with the net ready to throw. This technique certainly works, but for the bait where I live you would end up getting tired.

[@FISHGOLF100]

If tried that in my boat i would end up in the drink.But your way is a great to throw the net

I guess this is Australia, near PNG. Am I correct?

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

[@georgevanderbilt8978]

great instruction

[@partner348]

Don't recognize the net. Appears to have no horne, nor brail lines for the horne to follow to the lead line to form a basket. So it appears the net it is only applicable from the shore where you can slide it "slowly" up onto the sand, as it appears that once the lead line loses contact with the sand, the bait is free to swim out. I don't see how you can lift it up to the bow of a boat or onto a dock since there are no brail lines to pull the lead line together to form a "trap". Wondering if the technique will work equally well however with a brailed/horned net.

[@RyanMoodyFishing]

partner348 works perfectly well off a boat mate. There are pockets in the net that catch the bait. In deeper water I use a drawstring castnet. And for prawns I use a different one again. The different types are spelled out here: www.ryanmoodyfishing.com/cast-nets-for-catching-bait/
