At the suggestion of various members and given the magazines will run a mile from criticising a piece of kit, here is your chance to tell us what you really think about a rod, reel, line, lure... keep it legal please!

Drop Net???????

#1 Post by Codswallop »

Alright Lads,

Where would I get a drop net for rock fishing? The rocks i'll be fishin will be fairly high up, bout 30 ft. Its ok getting the fish up, but returning the fish safely is the hard part. Theres no access to walk down and release the fish, so a drop net is a must, but where?????

Thanks

the english mail order places have them or ebay.
if you want to make one you can do so with the rim of a bicycle wheel with the spokes and tyre taken out, some garden netting a power drill (to drill holes for ropes) and some rope. tip:anchor the rim in three places and place a weight in the centre of the net.
take it easy
