KNITTING NETS

In the practice of sport and recreational fishing, net products are widely used: for nets, cages, lifts, etc. In addition, recently in some regions the use of net fishing gear has been permitted under licenses.

If you can't buy a net or a product made from it in a store, don't be upset. If desired, they are easy to make at home.

The mesh fabric consists of intersecting threads fastened with knots. Nets are knitted from linen, cotton, nylon, silk and other threads that have the same thickness along the entire length and tensile strength corresponding to the future product. The thread must be smooth, elastic, resistant to environmental influences.

In the extended position, the cells of the network (Fig. 1) are equilateral quadrangles, the sides of which (threads) are connected by knots. The cell size is determined by the distance between nodes.

Rice. 1. Mesh fabric:

1 - thread; 2 - node; I am a cell;P - cell size; P - row of cells; P/2 - row of half-cells;W - network width; V is the number of cells in a row of network width; D - network length; n is the number of rows of the network length.

The mesh fabric begins to be knitted from the first row of cells. The number of them in a row depends on the width of the network and the size of the cell. The required number of half-cells is tied to the first row of cells to obtain a fabric of the required length.

The net is knitted using a shuttle and a template.

Shuttle designed for placing thread, performing operations on tying knots, stitching products from the network and their repair.

In Fig. 2 shows shuttles of various designs. The width of the shuttle should be half the size of the cell, the length should be 10-15 times greater than the width, the thickness should be minimal, but corresponding to the strength of the material, so that the shuttle does not bend from the tension of the thread turns wound on it.

Rice. 2. Tools for knitting net:

1-shuttle made of riveted wire for knitting small meshes; 2-shuttle made of soldered wire; 3 - shuttle made of plate (metal, wood); 4-thread wound on a shuttle; 5 - template (wood, plastic); d - length; w - width

Sample designed to give the network cells the required uniform size. Templates are made in the form of plates, usually of an oval cross-section, 10-12 centimeters long. The width of the template (with a thickness of 2-3 millimeters) should be such that the length of one turn of thread around it is equal to twice the size of the cell.

Knitting a mesh fabric is a repeatedly repeated operation of tying and tightening knots, with the help of which the lower row of half-cells is tied to the top row of cells.

To learn how to quickly and efficiently knit a net, you need, first of all, to master the techniques of knitting knots. In Fig. Figure 3 shows the simple, most common knots with one overlap (overlap - passing the shuttle through the upper cell while tying the lower one to it).

Rice. 3. Simple mesh knots:

a - knot through the little finger; b - knot with overlap at the top: c - knot with overlap at the bottom

Knot through the little finger. The sequence of operations when tying this knot is shown in Fig. 4. Holding the template between the thumb and ring fingers of the left hand, the middle one is inserted into the upper cell and the net is pulled. The thread coming from the knot of the upper cell is passed around the template and the ring finger, then hooked onto the index, middle and little fingers. The little finger is pressed to the palm and, without weakening the tension of the thread, draw the shuttle from below with your right hand into the first loop (around the ring finger and the template) and overlap from below into the cell under the middle finger (Fig. 4, a). In the figure, the shuttle is shown conventionally in the form of an arrow.

Having placed the thread on top of the template, they begin to pull it to the top cell (Fig. 4, b). In this case, all fingers, except the little finger, are freed from the loops.

When the weave of threads is on the upper edge of the template, the weave is clamped with the thumb and forefinger. Then the little finger is released from the loop and the knot is finally tightened between the fingers on the upper edge of the template (Fig. 4, c).

This method of knitting knots is considered the best, firstly, because the resulting knot does not move along the thread of the upper cell, as a result of which all four sides of the cell are the same; secondly, despite the apparent complexity, knitting is done at the highest speed, since you only have to intercept the shuttle once, passing it through the upper mesh. However, this method does not allow knitting nets with a mesh size of less than 1 centimeter. With a certain skill, a knot through the little finger can be knitted blindly, which is very important for people with poor vision.

Knot with overlap at top(Fig. 5). First operation: the thread coming from the previous knot is wrapped around the template, the shuttle is passed into the upper cell from above (overlapping from above) and the cell is pulled to the upper edge of the template. In this case, the threads of the upper cell should turn and form a small loop at the bottom, after which the loop, together with the upper edge of the template, is tightly clamped between the thumb and middle fingers. Second operation: the thread is passed around the thumb and index finger, the shuttle is passed under the lower threads of the upper cell, over the thread above the thumb and index finger, and the knot is finally tightened between the thumb and middle finger.

It is important that the thread covers the loop of the upper cell when tightening the knot; To do this, it is useful to slightly move your thumb upward without releasing pressure. The thread tightening the knot should be directed down and slightly to the right.

Knot with overlap at the bottom. First operation: the thread is passed around the template, the shuttle is passed into the upper cell from below (overlapping from below) and pulled to the edge of the template; The place where the threads are intertwined is pinched between the fingers. The second operation is the same as when tying a knot with an overlap at the top. Simple knots, if tied correctly and tightly, are immovable. To exclude the possibility of their movement along the thread of the upper cell, double-overlapping knots are sometimes used.

Cellular nodes with double overlap differ from simple ones in that the second overlap is carried out either after tightening a simple knot, or during the process of tying it. The node shown in Fig. 6, a, is formed after tying and tightening a knot with an overlap from above, followed by an overlap from below and a second tightening. Node in Fig. 6, b is obtained in the process of tying a knot with an overlap at the top. After the first overlap and passing the shuttle under the threads of the upper cell, make a second overlap from below behind the right thread of the cell and tighten the knot. This knot is more compact and is good for knitting networks of single-strand threads.

How to knit a fishing net?


Man learned to fish back in ancient times. It was a way to get food, along with hunting, picking berries, mushrooms and herbs. Today, those who want to taste fresh fish do not necessarily have to go to the shore, cast nets and sit out for long hours to bite - on store shelves you will not find any kind of fish, even the most exotic species, from the other side of the world. Today, fishing as a method of production subsistence is losing its position and becoming a popular hobby. This is both relaxation and new acquaintances, an opportunity to be alone with yourself, to get away from the bustle and noise of the city...

Benefits of using networks

Fishing with nets has been known since ancient times. Its advantage is that it does not require personal presence when fishing, ensures a large catch and allows the fisherman to do other things while fishing. Knitting fishing nets is a very ancient craft that has not lost its relevance today. But now only a few people are engaged in weaving nets for catching fish; they mostly use store-bought, factory-made ones. Despite the fact that making a network yourself is much cheaper than what it would cost to buy it. Knowledge of the basics of net weaving is necessary for fishermen to repair, re-equip or even improve factory nets for the required fishing conditions (adding sinkers, floats).

How to weave a fishing net? After watching the video materials at the end of our article, we can conclude that making a network is very simple. This activity does not require special skills, knowledge of knots or basic weaving. The costs are also minimal - just the purchase of thread or fishing line.

How to tie a fishing net at home

In addition to fishing line or thin threads, to weave a network you will need a shuttle and a bar. The shuttle performs the function of a needle, through which the net fabric is knitted. A bar is a ruler, the width of which depends on the pitch of the network cell (for example, if you are weaving a “magpie” network, then the width of the bar is 40 mm).

In the absence of special threads or fishing line, you can use ordinary sewing thread, which everyone has in the house, to make a net. You can make a shuttle yourself, or buy it in stores specializing in fishing. The bar can be a simple ruler, a rectangular strip of plywood, plastic or tin. The width of the strap should be no more than 3-3.5 mm so that the knots are tightened well.

How to weave a fishing net in the easiest way

The process of making a net web is long and painstaking, so the net is usually weaved while sitting. Tie a wire or rope in the form of a ring in a place convenient for you. Pull the ring towards you and make a loop through the ring about 5 cm long. Attach a bar from below to the resulting knot, then make a turn of the thread with the shuttle under the bar downwards, while bringing the shuttle up through the ring. Stretch the thread, pinch the thread with your finger and tie the resulting loop with a knot. Next, again make a downward turn through the bar, bring the thread through the ring and again pinch the thread on the bar with your finger. Tighten the knot by releasing your finger. Thus, you need to dial the number of loops that is necessary for the width of the network. Then remove the bar.

As a result, you will end up with a series of loose loops on the wire. Next, pull the thread, place the bar under the thread, turn the shuttle down around the bar, grabbing the cell, pull the thread and pinch it with your finger. Tie a knot with a shuttle and tighten. This is how the process of knitting the net occurs, loop by loop. When you finish the row, remove the bar. And so you weave to the required length of the net: pull the thread, apply the bar from below, pull out the shuttle, diving down, through the cell to the top, pull and clamp the thread on the bar. Photos and drawings explaining step-by-step instructions on how to make a fishing net can be viewed. When the canvas is ready, it is equipped - threads are passed along the edges, floats or sinkers are tied on.

Network equipment

The final and most painstaking stage of making a network is its equipment (planting). To do this you will need a thick thread, preferably nylon, and a shuttle. Drive a nail into a vertical surface at chest height. The resulting loops of rope are strung onto a nail. Then take the edge of the net, which was the beginning, untie the ring on which the loops are collected, pass the rope through the loops using a shuttle, tie it, fixing every third loop with a knot at a distance that depends on the size of the cell. For example, if the cell size is 40mm, then the distance between the nodes is 20cm. But, as a rule, this is determined by eye. Try to keep the cells stretched rather than taut.

Having finished working with the side part of the net, you begin to string the sinkers and floats. To do this, string the corner of the net onto a nail again and grab three cells at once with a shuttle, straightening them. Attach a float between the cells on a rope, then thread it through three cells and tie it to the second rope. And so on until the end. Then you hang the net again so that the distance from the floor to the edge of the net does not exceed 10-20 cm. Drive a nail at the bottom and follow the above-described algorithm of actions, but now attach weights to the net.

Equipment affects the characteristics of the fishing net and can be different. It depends on the type of fish you are going to catch.

  • To increase the catchability of the net, you need to make the step of tying the cells at the bottom wider than at the top, and the bottom of the net will become baggy.
  • If you do the opposite, then you can safely go fishing for fish that swim along the surface of the water.

A lot also depends on the size of the floats! The buoyancy of the floats and the size of the fish must match. “Weak” floats should be used for small fish. Then she will freely enter the network without feeling the tension of the network. For large and large fish, “stronger” floats are required. Depending on the location of the fishing net and the conditions, the sinkers are also selected:

  • in shallow water use light weights,
  • at depth - heavy.

Now the question of how to knit a fishing net will not take you by surprise. You can create a network for your needs. Whether you use it later for fishing or to realize your creative ideas in interior decoration - it doesn’t matter! The main thing is that you were able to do it yourself, and this is already a success!

KNITTING NETS

In the practice of sport and recreational fishing, net products are widely used: for nets, cages, lifts, etc. In addition, recently in some regions the use of net fishing gear has been permitted under licenses.

If you can't buy a net or a product made from it in a store, don't be upset. If desired, they are easy to make at home.

The mesh fabric consists of intersecting threads fastened with knots. Nets are knitted from linen, cotton, nylon, silk and other threads that have the same thickness along the entire length and tensile strength corresponding to the future product. The thread must be smooth, elastic, resistant to environmental influences.

In the extended position, the cells of the network (Fig. 1) are equilateral quadrangles, the sides of which (threads) are connected by knots. The cell size is determined by the distance between nodes.

Rice. 1. Mesh fabric:

1 - thread; 2 - node; I am a cell;P - cell size; P - row of cells; P/2 - row of half-cells;W - network width; V is the number of cells in a row of network width; D - network length; n is the number of rows of the network length.

The mesh fabric begins to be knitted from the first row of cells. The number of them in a row depends on the width of the network and the size of the cell. The required number of half-cells is tied to the first row of cells to obtain a fabric of the required length.

The net is knitted using a shuttle and a template.


Shuttle designed for placing thread, performing operations on tying knots, stitching products from the network and their repair.

In Fig. 2 shows shuttles of various designs. The width of the shuttle should be half the size of the cell, the length should be 10-15 times greater than the width, the thickness should be minimal, but corresponding to the strength of the material, so that the shuttle does not bend from the tension of the thread turns wound on it.

Sample designed to give the network cells the required uniform size. Templates are made in the form of plates, usually of an oval cross-section, 10-12 centimeters long. The width of the template (with a thickness of 2-3 millimeters) should be such that the length of one turn of thread around it is equal to twice the size of the cell.

Knitting a mesh fabric is a repeatedly repeated operation of tying and tightening knots, with the help of which the lower row of half-cells is tied to the top row of cells.

To learn how to quickly and efficiently knit a net, you need, first of all, to master the techniques of knitting knots. In Fig. Figure 3 shows the simple, most common knots with one overlap (overlap - passing the shuttle through the upper cell while tying the lower one to it).

Rice. 3. Simple mesh knots:

a - knot through the little finger; b - knot with overlap at the top: c - knot with overlap at the bottom


Knot through the little finger. The sequence of operations when tying this knot is shown in Fig. 4. Holding the template between the thumb and ring fingers of the left hand, the middle one is inserted into the upper cell and the net is pulled. The thread coming from the knot of the upper cell is passed around the template and the ring finger, then hooked onto the index, middle and little fingers. The little finger is pressed to the palm and, without weakening the tension of the thread, draw the shuttle from below with your right hand into the first loop (around the ring finger and the template) and overlap from below into the cell under the middle finger (Fig. 4, a). In the figure, the shuttle is shown conventionally in the form of an arrow.

Having placed the thread on top of the template, they begin to pull it to the top cell (Fig. 4, b). In this case, all fingers, except the little finger, are freed from the loops.

When the weave of threads is on the upper edge of the template, the weave is clamped with the thumb and forefinger. Then the little finger is released from the loop and the knot is finally tightened between the fingers on the upper edge of the template (Fig. 4, c).

This method of knitting knots is considered the best, firstly, because the resulting knot does not move along the thread of the upper cell, as a result of which all four sides of the cell are the same; secondly, despite the apparent complexity, knitting is done at the highest speed, since you only have to intercept the shuttle once, passing it through the upper mesh. However, this method does not allow knitting nets with a mesh size of less than 1 centimeter. With a certain skill, a knot through the little finger can be knitted blindly, which is very important for people with poor vision.


Knot with overlap at top(Fig. 5). First operation: the thread coming from the previous knot is wrapped around the template, the shuttle is passed into the upper cell from above (overlapping from above) and the cell is pulled to the upper edge of the template. In this case, the threads of the upper cell should turn and form a small loop at the bottom, after which the loop, together with the upper edge of the template, is tightly clamped between the thumb and middle fingers. Second operation: the thread is passed around the thumb and index finger, the shuttle is passed under the lower threads of the upper cell, over the thread above the thumb and index finger, and the knot is finally tightened between the thumb and middle finger.

It is important that the thread covers the loop of the upper cell when tightening the knot; To do this, it is useful to slightly move your thumb upward without releasing pressure. The thread tightening the knot should be directed down and slightly to the right.

Knot with overlap at the bottom. First operation: the thread is passed around the template, the shuttle is passed into the upper cell from below (overlapping from below) and pulled to the edge of the template; The place where the threads are intertwined is pinched between the fingers. The second operation is the same as when tying a knot with an overlap at the top. Simple knots, if tied correctly and tightly, are immovable. To exclude the possibility of their movement along the thread of the upper cell, double-overlapping knots are sometimes used.


Cellular nodes with double overlap differ from simple ones in that the second overlap is carried out either after tightening a simple knot, or during the process of tying it. The node shown in Fig. 6, a, is formed after tying and tightening a knot with an overlap from above, followed by an overlap from below and a second tightening. Node in Fig. 6, b is obtained in the process of tying a knot with an overlap at the top. After the first overlap and passing the shuttle under the threads of the upper cell, make a second overlap from below behind the right thread of the cell and tighten the knot. This knot is more compact and is good for knitting networks of single-strand threads.

Before you start knitting a network, you need to make some calculations, prepare a sufficient number of threads, select or make a shuttle and a template. The number of cells is calculated as follows. Let's say you need to knit a mesh fabric for a lift, the length and width of which is 1 meter, the mesh size is 2 centimeters.

When the network is stretched, its cells will look like squares (see Fig. 1). The number of cells in a row is determined by the ratio:

N=Ш/с, where N is the number of cells in row P1; W - network width (length of one row of cells); c is the length of the diagonal of the square.

Since c=a#2, where a is the cell size, then W/a#2.

Substituting the original data into the formula, we get:

N=100/2*1.41~36.

Thus, each row of the network, which determines its width, must contain 36 cells. Since the width and length of the network are the same (100 cm), another 35 rows of cells, or 70 rows of half-cells, must be tied to the first row of cells.

To tie one row of half-cells, you will need about 150 centimeters of thread (2*a*N=2*2*36=144 cm), and for 72 rows - approximately 110 meters (including a small margin for knots, breaks, etc. .).

For a cell measuring 2 centimeters, you need a shuttle 1 centimeter wide. The width and thickness of the template are selected so that one turn of the thread around the template is 4 centimeters.


Starting to knit a network can be done in two ways. The first method is to knit two rows of meshes at the same time (Fig. 7). By wrapping the thread once around the template and tying its ends, you get an auxiliary “o” loop. From the thread coming from the shuttle, make two turns around the template and tie a knot on its edge (Fig. 7, a). Both loops are removed from the template, the straightened second loop will be the first mesh cell. This cell is inserted into the auxiliary one and both are hung on a nail (Fig. 7, b) or on any other stationary object located at arm's length of the knitter.

If you decide to tie the network in knots, for example with an overlap from below, proceed as follows. Draw the thread around the template, overlap it into loop 1 from below, pull it to the edge of the template, tie and tighten the knot, forming cell 2.

The next knot is tied in the same way, forming cell 3 (Fig. 7, c).

The following cells are knitted in the same sequence.

The resulting garland should consist of even and odd loops, the number of which should be equal to the estimated number of cells in a row of the network (Fig. 7, d). Then a cord is pulled into the even cells and its ends are tied (Fig. 7, e). hang the loop on a nail and begin to form subsequent rows.


Second way the beginning of knitting a network is shown in Fig. 8. At the end of the thread, tie a small loop so that the shuttle fits into it. A cord is inserted into this loop, its ends are tied, and the loop from the lace is hung on a nail (Fig. 8, a).


Throwing the thread coming from loop knot 1 onto the template and passing the shuttle into the lace loop, pull the template to the knot with the first loop, tie and tighten the slip knot (Fig. 8, b), thereby forming loop 2. The slip knot is tied into such sequences: after pulling the template, the last two threads going up are pinched on its edge with the thumb and middle finger; the thread from under the thumb is thrown onto the index finger, the shuttle is passed under the two threads of the resulting loop and over the thread thrown over the index finger; the knot is tightened on the upper edge of the template between the thumb and middle finger, next to the first knot. In the same sequence, all the nodes of the first row are knitted along the width of the future network (Fig. 8, c). To make the loops the same, you should not keep more than five or six half-cells on the template. They must be reset from the left end of the template as new ones accumulate.

Having tied the required number of loops and half-holes, the cord loop is removed from the nail and turned 180°. The template is removed from the half-cells and from the left edge they begin to knit the next row of the half-cell network (Fig. 8, d). The procedure is repeated until a network of the required length is obtained.

Tying the thread. If the supply of thread on the shuttle runs out or it breaks, the threads are tied. To do this, the ends of the broken thread and the thread from the charged shuttle are folded together, slightly twisted and tied with a regular knot next to the previous one, tightened at the edge of the template. The ends of the threads are cut at a distance of 3 - 5 millimeters. It is useful to melt the ends of the nylon threads over the flame of a match.

When knitting long mesh fabric, the distance from the knitter’s hands to the nail should not be more than one meter. To do this, as the net is being made, the loop from the cord should be removed from the first row and the cord should be passed into the cells located near the knitter’s hands. To prevent the free edges of the finished fabric from twisting and interfering with work while knitting the net, you can hang a hook with a small weight from its cells.

If you need to knit a mesh fabric that is not rectangular, but of some other shape, add and reduction of cells.


To increase the number of cells in the next row compared to the previous one, you need to tie an additional loop to the previous row in the manner shown in Fig. 9, a, b. To reduce the number of cells in a row, you need to link one of the cells of the next row to two cells of the previous one (Fig. 9, c).

Tying mesh panels allows you to produce products of various shapes (cylindrical, cone-shaped, bag-shaped, etc.). Panels of the required shape and size, having edge cells with three nodes, are connected to each other using a shuttle using one of the methods shown in Fig. 10.

It is believed that the net is not a sporting tackle, but sometimes it is difficult to do without it, and many anglers use it successfully, and many do not mind learning how to make it at home. Fishermen use nets while allowing commercial fishing in the seas and rivers. The net is also used in regions where fish is the staple food. These are remote villages where fish are caught with nets even in winter. Naturally, in such cases no one thinks about fishing with a feeder.

In order to connect the network, special tools are needed. As a rule, the grids are different and differ in the width of the cells. It all depends on how large the fish you intend to catch. The size of the cells is formed by the bar, which is an integral part of the knitting tool. The width of the bar used determines the dimensions of the meshes of the fishing net.

The second part of the tool is a shuttle, which is not difficult to make yourself or, in extreme cases, purchase at a store that sells fishing accessories. It should be noted right away that the bar and shuttle are made for a specific cell size of the future network. A smaller shuttle can be used to weave nets with large cells (but the bar must be of the appropriate size), but nets with smaller cells cannot be used, since the shuttle simply will not fit into a cell smaller than itself.

The shuttle is designed to wrap material around it and use it to tie knots. The material you can use is cord or monofilament fishing line. It is clear that a lot of material will be required to make the net, and therefore the material will be required in reels. The thinner the line, the more catchy the net, because such a net is hardly noticeable in the water. Color does not play a major role, since at a depth of 5 meters the fish does not distinguish color. A fishing line net has a number of advantages over nets made from other materials. It does not rot, dries very quickly and is more durable. The knots that are used when knitting nets can be different. When using fishing line as a working material, a double clew knot is used.

Look at the video on how to weave such knots:

Uni Line (chameleon) fishing line from the Japanese company Momoi Fishing is widely used for these purposes. This fishing line has a unique coating that makes it virtually invisible in water. The nets woven by the Chameleon are more catchy.

Net fabrics made from fishing line are called “dolls” and are widely used in the national economy.

Shape and size

Networks come in various forms:

  • Single-walled. The simplest form and has upper and lower selections. These selections are attached to the cores, which are located on both sides of the network. The height of the veins is 20 percent less than the network.
  • Two- or three-walled. Complex shaped networks called tangles. This is due to the fact that the fish get entangled in it.

The length of the networks can also vary and can range from 20 meters or more. The height of the nets (for industrial fishing) ranges from 1.5-1.8 meters. Accordingly, the nets also have different cell sizes depending on the size and size of the fish:

  • 20mm – for live bait and small fishing;
  • 27-32mm – for roach and perch;
  • 40-50mm – for bream and crucian carp;
  • 120-140mm – for trophy pike.

Landing

First, the main part of the network, called del, is woven. From such individual pieces, a large network is assembled, which, in turn, is fixed to a more durable base, which is used as a braided cord or strong rope. This technological operation is called “planting”. The fit could be 1:2, 1:3 or perhaps 1:15. Delhi can be purchased in a store and “planted” at home, which, by the way, many do. At the moment, Finnish and Russian ones are considered the best deals.

To “land” the network yourself, you need to mark the cord and calculate which cells will need to be attached in the marking places. For example, a net with 30mm mesh should be attached every 16 centimeters. This is a 1:3 fit, which involves fastening every third cell every 16 centimeters. The technology is as follows:

  • Take a shuttle and attach a fishing line to it;
  • The end of the line from the shuttle is tied to the outermost cell, and this outermost cell is tied to the picking cord;
  • Then the shuttle is threaded through the calculated number of cells;
  • At the mark on the cord, the cell is attached to the cord;
  • Repeat the movements until all the cells are attached to the cord.

Here's a video of how to plant and tie knots:

The net will not perform its functions if it is not equipped with weights and floats. Without these elements, the network will sink to the bottom and lie there in the form of a shapeless and useless thing. Special cords can be used as such elements.

In this case, the design is somewhat simplified, and the time spent on this procedure is reduced.

Chinese networks

These cheap nets are widely popular among fishermen. They are really knitted in China, which cannot be said about Finnish networks, which are not always made in Finland. The cheapness of Chinese nets allows you to simply leave them if they get caught, and if they get damaged, you can throw them away without regretting it at all. They come in different lengths, sometimes allowing you to cover a large part of the reservoir. At the same time, they are not of good quality, since the Chinese save on everything. Questions arise very often. The Chinese can save on sinkers, and such a net is not able to submerge in water. Very often they use low-quality knots (simple ones), which can come undone during fishing. Knowing this, many fishermen, when buying Chinese nets, correct them, eliminating defects, after which they can be used for fishing. The Chinese use regular white fishing line to weave their nets.

Twisted mesh fabric

A very large contribution to the search for new materials for amateur and professional fishing was made by Japanese scientists who came up with a mesh made from twisted fishing line. Such canvases have unique qualities and are recognized throughout the world. A fishing line twisted from several individual fibers is called a multimonofilament thread. Such a thread can include from 3 to 12 separate, less thin threads. When purchasing such products, by looking at the inscription on the packaging, you can find out how many fibers are twisted into one thread. For example, if you see the inscription 0.17x3mm, then this indicates that 3 threads with a diameter of 0.17mm each are twisted into a single thread.

Mesh fabrics made from twisted fishing line have the following characteristics:

  • Mesh fabrics have increased softness and elasticity;
  • Unnoticeable in water;
  • UV and salt water resistant;
  • To knit them, a double knot is used;
  • Nylon thread is used to tie them.

Landing net

A fishing net is a fairly serious structure that not everyone can weave and then “land.” But you can easily weave a landing net or cage from fishing line. For the landing net, a seamless “stocking” is knitted, which is then attached to a ring with a handle. Such a landing net is practically invisible in the water and does not alarm the fish when landing.

To weave a seamless network from which you can make a landing net, watch the video:

The Momoi Fishing company not only produces net fabrics, but also produces other accessories for fishing, and hand-knitting is used. Landing nets for landing fish of various sizes and designs are very popular among fishermen. All designs of this company are designed in such a way that they are easy to use, reliable and durable.

Any gear can be knitted from fishing line: nets, tops, etc. Their advantage is durability and lightness, and their invisibility in the water for fish makes them very catchy.

How to weave a net?






Fishermen sometimes use nets to catch fish. It is not necessary to buy a network in a store; you can make it yourself. Previously, every fishing lover knew how to do it. The method of weaving cells is simple, if you have the necessary tools at hand. It will take a lot of perseverance and patience, as this is quite painstaking work. In this article we will look at how to weave a network.

Materials and tools for weaving

In order to weave a high-quality net that can withstand mining and exposure to water, you should choose a durable material. It could be:

  • nylon or nylon thread;
  • fishing line;
  • regular sewing thread of a dark color, which should be strong and thick.

In addition to the material, you will need the following tools:

  • shuttle - a device with which the weaving process takes place;
  • bar - a ruler measuring the size of the cell.

If it is not possible to purchase a shuttle in a store, it can be cut from a thin sheet of plastic, wood or metal. It should be slightly smaller than the bar in order to pass freely through the network cells. You can use a piece of ruler, wood, or plastic as a bar. Before weaving nets for fishing, you need to wind a fishing line or thread onto the shuttle.

Net weaving process

When everything is prepared for work, you can begin to create fishing tackle.

    THANK YOU so much for the very useful information in the article. Everything is presented very clearly. It feels like a lot of work has been done to analyze the operation of the eBay store

    • Thank you and other regular readers of my blog. Without you, I would not be motivated enough to dedicate much time to maintaining this site. My brain is structured this way: I like to dig deep, systematize scattered data, try things that no one has done before or looked at from this angle. It’s a pity that our compatriots have no time for shopping on eBay because of the crisis in Russia. They buy from Aliexpress from China, since goods there are much cheaper (often at the expense of quality). But online auctions eBay, Amazon, ETSY will easily give the Chinese a head start in the range of branded items, vintage items, handmade items and various ethnic goods.

        What is valuable in your articles is your personal attitude and analysis of the topic. Don't give up this blog, I come here often. There should be a lot of us like that. Email me I recently received an email with an offer that they would teach me how to trade on Amazon and eBay. And I remembered your detailed articles about these trades. area I re-read everything again and concluded that the courses are a scam. I haven't bought anything on eBay yet. I am not from Russia, but from Kazakhstan (Almaty). But we also don’t need any extra expenses yet. I wish you good luck and stay safe in Asia.

  • It’s also nice that eBay’s attempts to Russify the interface for users from Russia and the CIS countries have begun to bear fruit. After all, the overwhelming majority of citizens of the countries of the former USSR do not have strong knowledge of foreign languages. No more than 5% of the population speak English. There are more among young people. Therefore, at least the interface is in Russian - this is a big help for online shopping on this trading platform. eBay did not follow the path of its Chinese counterpart Aliexpress, where a machine (very clumsy and incomprehensible, sometimes causing laughter) translation of product descriptions is performed. I hope that at a more advanced stage of development of artificial intelligence, high-quality machine translation from any language to any in a matter of seconds will become a reality. So far we have this (the profile of one of the sellers on eBay with a Russian interface, but an English description):
