The lock-knitting netting in this seine is made of extra strong, multifilament yarn, to prevent runs and fraying. The seine has a delightful o"feel " and ease of handling. It is also mildew resistant for longer life - a very good quality seine. The cords are over edged in the netting for extra stength. Each net comes complete with floats and sinkers. 4 foot in depth. Made in USA.
Gill nets are another type of vertical net with floats at the top and weights at the bottom. The difference between a seine net and a gill net is the size of the netting mesh and how they catch the fish. The hole size of a gill net is large enough for a fish to fit its head through, but not all the way. Gill nets rely on mid-sized, strong swimming fish to swim into the net without seeing it and get caught by their gills. The design of a seine net is to actively catch the fish, while gill nets fish passively (you set it up and wait a while, then see what got stuck in it). Another difference is where you set the net - beach seine nets are deployed from shore, while gill nets are usually set up out a ways, with a boat. (Or, if it's a larger seine net like a purse seine, you generally drive the boat around in a circle.)
Search the woods for branches or use foam from mail packing supplies for your seine poles. Cut or break your wood pieces to the match the shortest side of your minnow net, if you use different sized netting. Large foam pieces from mail packing supplies and other bulk wastes are an affordable option to making a seine net and foam is easier to handle in the water.
