Fishing net- net stockings

Post by undomesticdiva »

If you are really pushed for time, or your first net breaks, try a ladies net stocking/tights, then you can cut down the length of one to make a flat panel then get a good bendy twig such as willow, and fashion it to make a loop and attach the net et voila you have a wee net for fishing!
You may have to experiment a little, but as long as you don't want small fry such as minnows it seems like a pretty foolproof plan (i hope!) feel free to suggest improvements
I've got an old pair in my B.O.B :)

*Update* After a discussion with The Bearded Wonder (my hubby) the best thing would be to get an embroidery hoop, maybe 7-8 inches across, and attach the net to that then tighten as far as it can go :)
