These nets are designed to catch Gizzard Shad for trotline bait. Standard lengths are 50′, 75′, and 100′. They are made with #6 (.40mm) monofilament netting and the most popular nets are 6′ deep in 1-3/4″ or 2″ square mesh. Other depths, lengths, netting sizes, and mesh sizes are available.
Standard nets are sinking style with 3/8″ float rope and size #30 lead core rope. Floating nets come with ¼″ top rope and FL-113 float every 6′, and size #20 lead core rope.
The most popular net is floating style, 6′ deep, 50′ long, with 1-3/4″ mesh which catches shad about 8″ and longer. Check with your local wildlife agent about what is legal in your area.
Please note: during spring time, our busy season, this net may take up to three weeks to be built.
