    Clear/ghost Nets

    in General Chat - Fishing Related

    Posted

     

    I also love the Brodin Ghost nets. I lost one on the bow last year and had to buy another. Picked mine up at Country pleasures but other shops may have them (have my name on it now). I have the “Gallitin” model which has a 8.75" by 17.25" hoop and can easily hold a 27” fish. Another option is to buy a ghost net insert for your existing net. What I’ve found in the positive about this type of net.

     

    • Doesn’t catch when walking through the bush like a classic net
    • Sheds water fast so it doesn’t wick on your back
    • Hooks don’t imbed in the material
    • I find fish calmer in the net than with course material against them
    • Doesn’t harm the outer protective coat on trout like a thread based product

    x2 or x4? Quality product.

    Torn New Fly Line

    Or you could cut off the busted welded loop, then take an old leader which has a perfection loop pre-tied, and attach the non loop end to the fly line with a nail knot. Apply some UV knot sense where you cut the fly line so it won't get water logged. Then you still have a loop to loop connection.
