There are many fans of net fishing here on the forum. Good info!

If this was a wedding anniversary we'd be talking about pearls. Tony

I just posted "Hints for the Beginning Netmaker" that contains some ideas to help the newcomer to the craft.

On page 2 of my instructions I showed one way to add string to your netting Here is another taken from "Net Making" by Holdgate. The black is the old cord, the gray is the new. Take them together and tie the netting knot. Trim ends.

Here is an other way to start a net other than the one I outlined in my instructions. Just begin netting into a separate cord. Tony
