These nets are rigged by us to the same high standard as our Seine Nets. They have CN4 Floats and 3oz Leads at every 18″ and are ideal for removing weed growth.
We rig our Heavy Duty Weed Nets by hand, here at Collins Nets.
Our weed nets are crafted similarly to our Seine nets, with 22 mm knotless mesh fully rigged using 3oz barrel leads at 18″ and CN4 floats at 18″. This design makes the net ideal for effectively removing weed growth and surface algae.
We use 1.3mm braided twine to rig the Nylon knotless netting to 10 mm low stretch quality rope with floats and leads.
To efficiently remove common algae and weeds, simply pull the net over the surface of the water.
We add a sweep and handle to all 4 corners of our weed nets. This design facilitates easy attachment to a bridle or manual use by hand. These sweeps significantly ease the handling of longer nets, which may become heavy during use.
For further guidance on using a seine net see page 10 of this IFCA Fish Survey Best Practice guide. Fish-survey-best-practice-guidance.pdf.
