Dip NetThis dip net is a replica of of nets that were once in Pennsylvania for migrating shad. It is made of linen twine attatched to the iron rim of a discarded wooden wagon wheel. The support ropes are also linen, twisted using a Boy Scout Pioneering rope twister.http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y18/asemery/rope%20twister/82ad.jpg Like the Hammer Net shown in another thread it is illegal to use nowadays. 4' diameter rim, 3/4" wide mesh gauge.
