Beautiful. Dad taught me this when I was 15 years old. Great refresher.
I've been watching your channel for a long while now; and I grew up in a seaside town in Florida and spent a lot of time around boats, so I should've learned this. But I never did, and I played with netting a few years ago but never learned it properly. This is the best, most sensible way of showing how to make and mend nets that I've ever seen, and now I've *got* it down! THANK YOU! Happy foraging, and lots of scallops and crabs your way!
It is our pleasure, I hope that the net making/mending is useful for you. 😊
Brilliant :D
Project list - Drop net... Garden hammock .... Girlfriend onesie with drawstrings
Bangersnsmash Uk - I see you’ve written that list in reverse order. 😉
It’s 30 years since I last used a needle to hang and repair salmon nets. Brings back memories of repairing a tear in the dark at 2am with rain running down the back of my neck. We used 2” and 5” meshes on our draft nets.
- I can't remember what we used to use in the trammels. I only do the odd bit of pot making and mending now. But its a skill that needs keeping warm or you soon forget. ;)
Thanks for the drawings on the mend. Made much more sense thanks
My pleasure. 😊
Thanks mate that was brilliant!!! Best and easiest video to follow on how to make and repair a net. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skill!!!
It is my pleasure John. I hope you find it useful. 😊
That was MAGIC!!! Long time survival practitioner, but net making is a new skill, you’ve really opened my world. I can’t wait to test fire this for bait catch and trawling. You’ve a supporter for life. Greetings from Canada!!!
I am simply happy to be able to pass on a skill my grandfather taught me. Keeping the skill alive. 😊👍🏻🐟🦞
Echoing what others have said. The easiest net-making instructional I've seen. Thank you
I hope it helps folks out. 👍🏻
john watched other vids about net making your by far the best cheers
jimmy flynn - Thankyou very much Jimmy. Glad I could help. 👍🏻😉
Agreeded
I got onto this video from another one about making a net. Watched the other one (my first video about netmaking) and thought - boy what a neat video!
Then I saw this video on RUclips's recommendation and I now I am no longer thinking the first one was even remotely OK.
This channel is a real gold nugget with information! Thanks mate.
Haha. Different presentation styles suit different people. I am glad that the video helped. 😊
Brilliant instructional video! Love it.
Glad you liked it. I hope it helps folks out.
Great tutorial thanks 👍 I'm making netting to support plants in my garden. Using this method the netting is exactly the size I want in the material I want. Brilliant thanks!
Brilliant!!!! Thank you so much for showing me this technique. I'm in my 70's and have wanted to know how to do it for ages. Your video sho2ws it perfectly and clearly and is paced for the average wannabee.....like myself.
Have subscribed and will work my way through your videos.
Cheers M8 from Canada North
My pleasure Wayne and welcome to the channel. 👍🏻
Wow, what an excellent tutorial! Thanks so much for sharing it!
You're very welcome 👍🏻
Genuinely over the moon to see this bloke so excited to share a fishing knot- Came here to figure out this knotting pattern for a project I’m making and got derailed because Everytime he pulled out another thing he’d made I was hollering.
Is this how people feel when someone scores a goal because he was like “or, just as good-“ and I was standing up like yEAAAAAH MATE FUCK IT U P- “THATS AMAZING YOURE DOIN AMAZING SWEETIE LETS GOOOOOOO”
I am simply happy to share knowledge in the hope that it helps folks out. 👍🏻
Today my first net knitting. Got me the needles from Ebay and started with a parcel string. After some time, I succeeded. With your tutorial it is a piece of cake. Thanks a lot.
- Thats it. Once you know the pattern its simple isn't it. 😁
@@TheFishLocker It is indeed. After the third net I guess I can do it even while sleeping. Next little project is a hammock.
This used to be a very guarded craft 🥰🤤 Thanks!
Andariel Drachen - One of the things you may notice from our channel is that we don’t have secrets. I am as open as I can be and share everything. Good and bad. We are in this to help people learn and enjoy something that has brought me much joy throughout my life. I just want to help pass some of it on. 😊👍🏻🎣🦀
Thank you for making this so easy ! you're a good teacher . In survival, net making will save your life here in Canada.
John not sure I've seen anything like this on you tube ever.
Another brilliant vid😂🐟🦈
Philip Shaw - No problem Philip, I hope it is useful for you. 👍🏻🎣😉🐟🛥
Wow Thank You! My brother never taught me how to weave or even patch a net so this video is what I needed. The drop net is perfect for crabbing off the pier.
- It is a great skill to have, once you know how to do it you find loads of uses for it. :)
That drop net looks awesome
I has been really useful
You probably dont care but if you're stoned like me atm then you can watch pretty much all the latest movies and series on instaflixxer. Have been watching with my girlfriend recently =)
@Blaine Jalen yea, I have been using Instaflixxer for since december myself =)
Yer a man of many talents Mr Fish Locker. Thanks for sharing.
Derek Allport - Haha. Thankyou. I have always hated not knowing things so have a real hunger for knowledge. I hope it’s a skill that you find useful. 👍🏻😊
Best explanation and example on RUclips!
Thank you. I hope the video helps folks out. 😊👍🏻
This is a skill ive wanted to learn for a while but ive found instructions to be lacking from other places, this is the perfect explanation and im going to give it another go now, thank you very much for taking the time to make and post this video, its much appreciated, all the best
After you've had a good watch of this have a look at the video making a lobster pot. 😉 Then maybe the splicing ones on the fishlocker workshop. 😊
@@TheFishLocker already watched, downloaded, practiced and failed lol, but I keep going with it and it gets better every time so il get there, they are really easy to follow videos the way you present them, wouldnt have bothered even trying without them, so im grateful that you took the time to show them
Brilliantly simple and helpful. Thanks, mate!
Glad it helped 👍🏻
i will now explore making nets, thank you john. fantastic info as always.
john burgess - No worries mate. Glad it was useful. 👍🏻😉
Excellent instruction. This is the way I was taught and for some reason it's hard to find this method on youtube. Most everyone does it with separate pieces of line tied off to another piece of line and then woven together side by side. The sheet bend mesh knot I think is the perfect middle ground between stiffness and speed. You could tie carrack bends for an extremely strong net but that would take twice as long per mesh knot, and a square knot would be a little slower than a sheet bend, but also be a very loose/compressible net.
Thank you for showing us! I am reading The Giants in the Earth, and our hero, Per Hansa, makes a big net to catch fish and ducks. I wondered how he did it. :)
I am glad you found the video interesting 😊👍🏻
Morning John, great tuition once again. This is a skill I learned watching my grandad make shrimp nets on summer school holliday trips to Hastings. I guess I was about 7 or 8! I used the skill later, when about 12, to make purse nets when I was ferreting. Never thought of making lobster pots etc, now living in the west country, and semi retired, I guess I have some new projects for these dark evenings! Thank you again. Rich
Rich Swain - If you want to try your hand at it I’ve done a vid on how I make my pots. 😉👍🏻🦀🦞
Great stuff john 21 dislikes I guess the secret mesh knitting club don't approve
- Haha. This just shows you what we have to put up with Barry. We have a couple of rival channels that troll the vids and get their friends to dislike our videos out of petty jealousy. It’s says more about them than it does about our videos mate. 😉🤣
Extremely helpful video. Thank you for making it!!
Glad it was helpful 👍🏻🎣
This is the best net making video ive watched thank you so much man .. ive been trying to figure it out and now i know thanks to you brother. Wish i could eat some of those big fish lol
I am glad that you found the video helpful Paul.
hi john after a week of watching this vid I now have the Technik now to work on the speed love how you really show your stuff in detail cheers john
- No problem Jimmy, I'm really glad folks are finding the videos helpful. :D
Very good very helpful thank you very much. Very informative, much appreciated. 🇨🇦
Any time Doug, glad it was useful.
Thanks so much. That's is the best explanation I have ever seen.
Thank you Rosie. It is my pleasure. 😊🦀
Excellent tutorial! I wanted to make a mesh pocket for my rucksack and found this brilliant video while searching tips and tutorials, thanks!
Subscribed 👍
I hope the video helps folks out.
Thank you so so much .. that was very clear n very easy to understand
I am glad you thought so.
Started right after the video. Great fun and a practical skill. Thank you
I hope you find it helpful David. It is a very useful and often forgotten skill. 😊
Another great video John, well done. I've been buying different types of nets to construct drop nets for cliff fishing. They all have been made from cheap non-abrasion resistant cord. After seeing this i'll be making my own from superior cord from now on.
Rob J - Thanks Rob. A stronger chord will help but the edges are still at the mercy of the rocks. I’ve got some old hose pipe that I’ve slit down the middle and tied around the frame to try and cut down on the line damage 😉
Thank you so much for sharing! The way you explain this is excellent (especially the set up on the wall is great for understanding and I deem even a good advantage for knotting).
I am really glad you found the video helpful. 😊
Thanks. This is simple and can be utilised in so many ways.
You are absolutely right. Once learned it is a skill that can be used in so many ways. 😊👍🏻
You made it very easy. Thank you!!!
I am glad that you found the video helpful. 👍🏻
This is brilliant. Thank you so much for sharing this technique!
Glad it was helpful Catherine and have a lovely day. 👍🏻
Brilliant video and explanation. Just the type of video i needed to make my own pots. beats the other videos Ive looked at. Cheers.
Brian Marshall - Hi Brian, I’m very glad to hear you found this helpful. Have you seen my video on how I make my own crab and lobster pots?
ruclips.net/video/GPtZXZLpkrA/видео.html
@@TheFishLocker yes. But I'm glad I found the link because on your video, you mentioned a link on how to do the netting. And that's what I needed. I've got a inboard moored on the Tyne. But always wanted to have a go at doing my own Lobster pots. So I'll start getting the kit together and go a head and make them. But Defo the netting. Once I get the hang of it. Cheers
Brian Marshall - It’s all in the practice. Once you’ve got it right in your mind it’s really simple. If you can’t get away with making the whole pots look out for any damaged etc and you can now fix them. 😉👍🏻🦀🦞
@@TheFishLocker definitely Going to start planning. 👍
This is very interesting & helpful information very good . I like theses old skills show . Thank you
I hope people find the video helpful.
Awesome video. Browsing through a ton of similar videos, I found this one the easiest to follow. Thanks!
I am glad that you found the video helpful. 😊👍🏻
This is amazing! I've got to get myself a needle to try this!! Amazing explanation aswell!
Good luck. 👍🏻
What a talent, well done very informative
silverbob999 - Sadly it’s a skill that’s being lost mate. Hopefully you’ll find a use for it. 👍🏻🎣
Thank you so much. Very clearly demonstrated.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellently explained, thank you!
My pleasure. 😊👍🏻🦀
Fabulous! Going to make my own horse rope haynet. Thanks
That would be perfect for that. 😊👌🏻
Now that is so simple! Ok it will take a bit of practice but basically simple. Yet this is the first time i have seen this on a fishing channel. I am so glad i have found this channel. Good health and stay safe mate.
RHINO 54 - Most things are simple once you understand them 👍🏻 The net mending can be tricky but you just need to take your time. It’s a great skill to have and unfortunately one that is being lost. My grandad taught me as a young boy. 😊🎣🐟
I need a drop net for the summer so i will start practicing tomorrow. I imagine it will take quite a few attempts (to say the least) and i have nowhere here where i can buy a needle, so i will have to make that first. But as you say, it can be used for so many things and it is a usefull skill to have and be able to pass on. Thanks again.
RHINO 54 - If you cant find a chandlers or anything those needles can be picked up off eBay. 😉
@@TheFishLocker i live in the north east of France, the nearest coast is unfortunately 300 or so miles away. I am only able to sea fish a few times a year and chandlers are not common here. Lol. I will look at e-bay, thanks
Nice, I can actually see what you are doing as you explain.
Thank you❤
Excellent instruction! Thank you.
I hope the video helps 👍🏻
your an excellent teacher !
- Haha. If my school teachers could hear that they'd die laughing
Great skills fair play! 👍
EAF 2107 - Thanks bud. It’s such a useful skill to know. And sadly one that is being lost today. Hopefully this will help to keep it going a little longer. 😉
Great informative vid , I'm going to post you my socks to mend John. Phil. Manchester
phil brooke - Haha. Funnily enough I do do all of the sewing in our house. 😆
Straight up brilliant video ! gonna be a busy weekend now.
tessilateddragon - Practice makes perfect. 👍🏻😉 A good needle really helps and can be picked up off eBay cheap. The trick is to keep your knots tight. 😬
@@TheFishLocker got it.... thanks very much dude ! will follow the vid step by step , make a mess at first no doubt but rest assured i will get it . I find step by step videos so helpful can pause when you need and this video is 10/10 dude , well explained white doing the process can't ask for more ... avid fan now
tessilateddragon - Brilliant. So glad it makes sense and is helpful. This and the splicing vids are all going into a “Small boat owner/user” playlist. Where I plan to upload more vids like this in the future. 👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker you have a great way of explaining things ! clear concise not a hint of arrogance , like listening to a m8 ! would defo like to fish with you one day ......
tessilateddragon - Thankyou very much. That really is high praise. I know what you mean, I have watched a few vids in the past where you feel a little patronised. I do try and pretend I’m just talking to a mate or explaining stuff to someone stood next to me. So I’m really glad that’s the way it’s received. 👍🏻😊 It’s a small world. I might bump into you out on the water one day? 😉
thanks for sharing love to see things like this I make purse nets for ferreting similar process
gary CURD - God it’s been probably 20 years since I went ferreting. Aye mate, very similar process just different chord and much smaller meshes. 👍🏻😀
Thanks you. I have some fixin' to do.
My pleasure. 😊
Nice technique, very useful. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it Alex. 😊
New subscriber here!! And I've been trawling the 'net (no pun intended), for an age looking on how to knit nets... Now I know, might have a go repairing a pot I have sitting in the shed....
Chris - Well in that case Chris, Welcome. 😊 I am glad you like the video and when you have the time please check out some of my other content. If you have any comments or suggestions please let me know. 👍🏻🎣
P.s. crab pots can be difficult, the trick is to get your meshes and knots super tight. 😉
Great, thank you!
Reeve Loon - Any time. If you have any other things like that you’d like to know more about let me know. If I can explain them I will. 👍🏻
Brilliantly explained thank you for sharing your talents
My pleasure Richard 😊
@@TheFishLocker cool thanks
You are excellent easy love you you got a subscriber
Thank you so much and welcome to our channel. 👍🏻
What a brilliant teacher. Thank you for sharing your skill. I want to net the top of the coat rack frames in our boot room to make some hat storage. I'll let you know how I get on!
I hope your idea worked.👍🏻
That learnt me what I wanted to know to make a lobster pot, thank
Have you seen the video on how to make lobster pots? Start to finish. 👍🏻
@@TheFishLocker no but I will look it up, thanks for letting me know about it
That was cool informative.
One suggestion… use different colors of chord. This would make it easier to see how the knot is tied.
I’m saving this video.
For instructional purposes different chords would have been a good idea. 👍🏻
I have to admit mate, I've just nicked a copy of this, this winter with an old bike wheel rim I'm going to make a couple of crab wheels .... Blessings mate
Good luck.
Excellent again mate and i learned something new now to put it into practice making stockings ,not for me i might add. haha
Stuart Allen - Sure. Whatever you say mate. 😉😛👍🏻 Haha.
I've got a use for that there skill John - I just bagged a couple of old pots that need mending. Cheers fella, Dave
Dave Dawson - Great stuff. I am considering getting a couple for the boat this year. The trick with pot meshes is to make the knots super tight. 😉
Great video again mate fully enjoyed it I will give it a go got a few projects I could do
Scott Senior - Excellent Scott, let me know how you get on. 👍🏻😉
Nice tutorial man good talent thanks god bless
- It is our pleasure. I am glad you found it useful. :)
I like it!!!
Thank you. 😊
Clever and so easy (knot)!
- haha.
Great, instructive video 👍👍👍
Romas fisherman - Thankyou. I’m glad you found it useful. 👍🏻😉
@@TheFishLocker I always watching of your video with pleasure
Loved your video.
Glad you enjoyed it. 👍🏻
Now I'll take a stab at repurposing an old fibreglass tennis racquet into a landing net!
- Go for it. 👍
I was just about to stop watching and can see now. Lol thanx
Its hard to self film detailed things like this. But I hope it worked out.
Excellent!
- My pleasure Neill
This tutorial is excellent. Simple and straightforward. We
Can you elaborate on or make a video about your drop net? I need to replace the netting in mine. I see that you doubled the netting around the rim/ring. Also, how to attach a ring in the center?
Did you see them mending section of this video?
Very important and great information nice
Sr i request you ñext time learn me other fishing net,
- Thank you very much.
Wow how simple is that great video
Just purchased a couple of needles and some thread here’s goes
- Im glad you enjoyed the video. Good luck. 😊
@@TheFishLocker Just started lobster and crab fishing with hoop nets, and I promise you I'm going to be using this knowledge at some point. Thanks for a great tutorial.
Can you show us how to make a circular net?
It is just the same as this but you go around and around. Or do a sheet and sew 2 edges together.
The number of landing/keep nets we threw away because they had a hole in.. If only I knew then what I know now. Thank you.
PatBot - Haha. Well now you know. 😉 Like I say in the vid, it’s a skill that once you know it it’s surprising the number of uses you find for it. Is there anything else like this you’d like to know how to do? If I know I’ll see about explaining it. 👍🏻😉
@@TheFishLocker OK.. You explained how's to make/repair nets, how about showing me how to fill them.. Hahaha just kidding.
@@PatBot - Haha. That is a different thing entirely.
Great tutorial! I'm going to make ground blind netting for Turkey and goose hunting this fall. Portable. Lite. Inexpensive. If you make it. You know how to fix it.
- Absolutely. Once you have made it and know the pattern, fixing holes is easy. :)
Great work dear
Thanks a lot
Watched all of your videos and love this one too. I will be learning this skill from you to make crab pots etc because in Australia, crabbing is hugely popular even though placing pots is not allowed in ocean waters. But we do have many estuaries where we can place our pots . I've just bought a few recently and this skill will no doubt save me $ in the future. I never knew what the rules were back home in the uk because I never used pots (and still haven't got around to doing it here yet, Just having bought my first, second hand boat) and am looking forward to it.
My question regarding the rules back home is, What markings do you have to place on your floats for identification purposes, how many holes are allowed in the CRAB pots and what dimensions do the pots have to be. Because fishing is huge over here, there are big restrictions on how many fish we are allowed to 'CATCH' of a species with restrictions on sizes and also what we are allowed to have 'IN POSSESSION' (including crabs, lobsters and shellfish). This is done to protect stocks for the future. Some sharks are protected and for me, it is a nightmare knowing and identifying fish because there are so many species. I'm sure you've heard of abalone, well for eg there is a size restriction (sensibly imo) but did you know you can only collect them using hands alone (no tools).
Also we are not allowed to keep any fish that get accidentally caught in a crab trap and are required to return them unharmed (makes sense to me too). Just as a side note, I still have and use my 'ABU 484 Atlantic zoom' from new probably before you were born. It held the world beach casting record (can't remember the weight it cast) and sooo looking forward to getting hooked again. Thanks again for passing your skills and knowledge on as we did not have internet and youtube back then. Deepest thanks, John.......You might consider doing a whole videos on making crab pots :)))
Nomad - A crab pot video is already a work in progress. 😉 There are many rules and byelaws governing fish and shellfish here in the UK, and they vary slightly by area. Most creatures have a minimum landing size. Also, you can’t catch fish or shellfish for sale without a license. Personal consumption is fine. If memory serves you are allowed 10 pots. And to keep 2 lobsters and 10 crabs provided they are above minimum landing size. And depending on what district you are in your fishing gear must be marked with your vessel name. In some areas you also need a limited shellfish permit - Free to own but required all the same. 👍🏻🎣🦀🛥
@@TheFishLocker Thanks for clarifying that John. Sounds similar to over here but never knew the rules of pots back home. I've only been here for about 17 years and came over at 52yo. Luckily, I fell in love with a woman who decided what our future was gonna be lol. Most of my family, children and grand children are still over there in Newcastle. 10 Pots? We are only allowed 2 per person and I'm certain other rules are hugely different too. If you're interested in Australian rules for catches. Try the NSW maritime website. I know laws and rules are different in different states. I'm sure it'l make interesting reading on boating and fishing. Tight lines mate. Have a good day.
Thank you very much. I’m hoping to learn to mend hay nets for horses. Sometimes the horses break the net putting a hoof through. It is dangerous if they get a foot caught and panic so leaving it open is very unsafe. Your instructions are very clear and much appreciated. Do you have recommendations for materials and where to purchase needles?
Cool!
- I am glad you enjoyed the video Zanna.
Great video especially on how to mend a broken net! I am very new to knots and I was wondering if this style of net is suitable to use on my 4x4 to separate the cargo area? Is it strong enough to prevent items from flying into the compartment in case of an accident? Thank you
That's genius.
I tried making a cargo net for my bike, just a string bag type of thing.
How do you join the two sides to make a tube and then close the bottom? Do you drop the number of stitches?
Or just stitch them together.
Will do mate
:)
That was awesome John, you made it look easy, bet I can get it wrong!!
The Autistic Angler - Haha. Practice makes it easier mate. 👍🏻😉
Hi mate! Brilliant video and extremely helpful. Would you be able to answer a couple of quick questions for me? 1) 3mm braided twine, is this polyethylene or nylon braided twine? Is this "tarred" twine? I am stateside, so I am having some difficulty finding what you used, but it looks very nice twine to use for this project. 2) Net needle: do you happen to recall which size you used for the net making example? If you could share this information, I would be very appreciative. Cheers, Jon
If memory serves I used a 10" and an 8" needle. The twine is braided twine, not twisted. Thats the main thing. 😉👍🏻
Splicing ! net making ! who's navy were you in ...Nelson's ? Most of the mateleots I know couldn't tie their own shoe laces !😆
basa364 - Haha. Same here.🤣🤣 These are skills I had before joining the Navy. I think they try to teach you 4 knots - and yes, one of them is your shoes laces.lol. I did teach a few lads splicing and net making whilst I was in, but the majority, if they couldn’t drink it or f*ck it they weren’t interested. 🤣🤣
😆😆😆
Well explained thanks - can I please ask what metal you used for the dropnet frame - TIA
Aluminium is better for making it light, steel is better if you need some extra weight.
I may have a crack at a proper repair on my drop net now, instead of sewing it up with 50lb mono. Cheers John.
- Haha. Yeah give it a crack mate. :)
Hey mate greetings from down under, have a question, in the video you are just going by experience I suppose of the size of the mesh. I would need a net card/board to get consistency (rookie) if so how would I go about it. Thanks
You can just use a piece of wood or plastic as a "mesh gauge" after you've been doing it a while you learn to get them all the same size just by eye. 😊
I need to do this to repair a couple promar hoop nets for lobster.
- Awesome. Good luck. 😊
