LOL camera operator falling asleep on the job? Seriously though, thank you for this video. It’s very straightforward and simple, and thanks to you I’ve just learned how to make a gill net in under 10 minutes. 😀

Thank you for taking the time and working to teach others this important skill.

Thank you so much for this! Our son has a small basketball goal with a 12" diameter. When the net wore out, we could not find one to fit. After finding your video, we purchased four pairs of white shoelaces and tied our own. Your video was the key piece. Thanks!

Thanks guys... I agree I think this is more of a longterm wildernes living or even hobby skill than it is a survival technique due to time, and the amoutn of cordage needed..Thanks for commenting.

Great job . I love it

Cool net! Awesome share! Wishing you a fantastic weekend dear friend X)

This would make a good trellis for climbing garden vegetables, like cucumbers

Another skill I would like to acquire. Well done! 5/5

Fascinating technique. It seems very time consuming, and in a survival situation, I don't know whether food would be enough of a priority for me to spend the calories making this net. But it might make a nice craft hobby, regardless. Thanks for sharing the technique.

that was great the net looked fab, hope u had a great christmas

Well done!

Looks great never seen one before thanks for sharing how you are having a most awesome day my friend

Thanks for sharing

Ty for talking me along

BE BLESSED!

Good vlog my friend friend forever. Josss👍😘💪😱✌😜

thankz man, big help

Great share and very useful information like 203

I leaned this from the same book!!!!!!

cool man

thank you

Awesome Man.. Gald I can help, Thanks for watching

@MrKal911 Thanks, this is a simple technique for a quicky type net, for anything that will stand the test of time, there are better but more time consuming methods. I'm going to say 15 ft for length by 13 for width.. as a rough estimate.. Thanks again for watching.

hi john, thank you very much for your reply. time is something i'm always short of hence your method is the one for me. thanks again.

hi john, i'd been looking such vid for some time, seen many and found your tech to be the easy and simple. like it. 1 question, how long ropes or strings should be to make a 10 feet x 8 feet net? please help. thank you.

thanks for the sarcasm its very productive

I most recently learned from the same book.

hey bro the first knot you are using is a Girth hitch, good vid

hello great video I have a question can the size be smaller. I am interested in making a 10 X 10 golf hitting net

hey john i commercial fish with hoop nets and i was wondering if you knew how to tie in the hoops to the webbing???thanks

thanks I've made heaps and it's best if you tie a not at the top a girth hitch slip and makes uneven diamonds

this can be used to make a ghillie suit, great way to ground hunt.

it can be made smaller by bplacing the vertical strands closer together.. However for a golf net there are better techniques.. like using a net needle will make for a tighter weave.

Hi there , i need your advice for the best possible twine to use when making a net that will last me a very long time , i plan to make my self a keeper net = its what you place fish in while your fishing with the intent to release back into the water at the end of the day , also i will be making a very large landing net , it will also be used to scoop up anything up to a 25 kilo fish , there is so called twine made in India and China , some of the stuff is called polypropylene , some polyethylene and some simply nylon , i will not be looking at monofilament because it is basically fishing line and i know it has a small lifespan , any advice will be at the very least a start because i know nothing about netting materials etc , thank you for your time and your answer

Did you catch fish with it?

Hi , I have a question . Do you know if parachute cord will work okay or too thick

Who is here because Alone? Can anyone give some insight as to how wide/big the net openings should be?

how to tie it in the end

my ? is how do u seel the bottom

I have the SAS survival guide, but those little illustrations leave too much room for misinterpretation and are no substitute for an audiovisual walkthrough. 👍

Any chance you could make yourself a tripod? :)

Geez how big a fish you trying to catch?

What to you do when you get to the end? Yo obviously cannot use the same knot that you started with.

what are you catching with those huge wholes? sharks ? just kidding i know its for video purposes

Looks like a lot of fish would swim right thru. But thanks, helpful nonetheless

that would have to be one big ass fish not to go through that net. swordfish?

can you make a hammock ?!?!??!

and someone opens the door..................

that's not how you make a gill net with a net needle and some mono filament i will show you how to make a net

Another case of those who can't teach!

This is not how to make a gill net. You need a net needle and spacer board. Much faster and more accurate.

u needs new camera man got headache all moving around not zoom in or showing what ur doing think u no what ur doing i just wasted 4+ mins ill never get back lol

amateur ;p

This is old as shit.

Boring!!
