hi bud im using soft wood but i would use hard wood if possible as it lasts longer its just more exspensive

[@ianrice7159]

How many mesh deep do you use for these pots when buying the 3x75mm pot netting

[@tommyd799]

Hi I'm using 8 and a half meshes on mine cheers

[@tommyd799]

Hi sorry for the late reply I'm using soft wood bud hard wood lasts a bit longer

is your season open tom. my season just ended. we fish a 2 month season here. I get 20.000 to 25.000 pound seasons here and get 4 dollars a pound here.

[@tommyd799]

ye it's open season a lot of lads can catch 100 to 200 lb a day in peak season probably a lot more on the big boats and your prices are about the same they can reach £9 a pound in winter so thats about $13 but they but they don't catch that many then theres some lads with thousands of pots off here the smaller boats just a couple of hundered it all depends really
