Im in the market for a good castnet. i fish with my girlfriend and she actually does most of the netting while i drive the boat. I want to stay in the five foot range due to her being shorter and easier to throw but am not to concerned with the money as long as its not crazy high. has anyone else that has used several differant kinds found a favorite that is easier throwing than others or one overall that is your favorite out of the houndreds out there. we just started using one last fall and have a cheap one from wallyworld that has worked so far but im hoping to find one that may throw easier etc. thanks in advance!! id look at a gill net but they are not legel here in iowa

I use about the same technigue throwing a cast net and was shown how by Dreadnaught who is a member on here also. I like the 10' size which is the largest you're allowed to use here in Ohio.

8' radius 16 diameter with 1.5lbs per foot

I wasnt able to effectively catch gshad with anything less or lighter
