Thegr8cody,



I have a 6 ft. and 7 ft. with 1.5 lb. of lead per foot and ½ mesh. And, I have also a 7 ft. with 1.3 lb. of lead per foot and 3/8 mesh. The 7 ft. is different slightly from the 6 ft. The 7 ft. you pull extra or two loops of the lead line (about 1 ½ - 2 foot each for 4 or 5 times) in your hand. As for the 6 ft. pulls the loops of the lead line about 3 times then I throw it really to open up pretty full circle. My method throwing is the same as the 6 ft. as the 7 ft. Many people have many different methods how to throw the cast net. No way to put the line in my mouth. It will surely eat my mouth and teeth from saltwater. You better do your work out with your cast net if you have 1.5 lb of lead per foot before going out on the water to cast net for skrimp so you won’t get WORE OUT!
