Cast Nets FAQ
Q: How to choose a cast net?
Depending on what kind of bait you are after, i.e. shrimp, pinfish, shiner, mullet, sardine, etc., having the correct mesh size will greatly improve your result. As with any fish netting, the larger the targeted species, the bigger size of mesh and stronger netting material needed.
- First thing on choosing a net is knowig what mesh size to use which means asking yourself what kind of bait are you targeting. The chart below is a good indicator of the type of cast nets required for which bait fish. Please keep in mind meshes used here are in square mesh. You may click on sizes to purchase cast net.
| Type of Cast Net | Square Mesh (in) | Bait Size | Target Bait |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minnow Nets (Small Baits) |   |
1" to 3" | Minnow Shrimp |
| Bait Nets (Regular Size Baits) |    |
3" to 12" | Pin Fish Threadfin Scaled Sardine( White Bait/Green Backs) Menhaden Ballyhoo |
| Mullet Nets (Large Baits) |   |
12" & over | Mullet |
- Next, determine how big and heavy of a net you can throw. The chart below will give you a good idea of how much each cast net weights. Keep in mind they are not exact but very close (a 0.52 mm mono for mullet nets weighs more than 0.23 mm mono used on minnow nets). Also, take into account how many times you'll be casting; are you done in 1-3 throws or does it take 5 -10 throws?

Q: WHAT IS A MESH?
Mesh measurements are in a square mesh (the distance from knot to knot or one side of the mesh as shown in the diagram below). Stretched mesh is another way to measure mesh size and it is the distance from the top knot of the mesh/diamond to the bottom knot of the mesh/diamond, essentially double the length of square mesh. For example a 3/16" sq. mesh net is the same as a 3/8" stretch mesh net. They are just different ways of measuring the same thing.
