cast nets are alittle tricky. spread it out like u where making a cast making a circle. re tie the main lines with mono. line and use mono. line to tie together the holes in the net.

No sure what kind of net you have,but I buy the Cheap 7' Net`s,I now have three......#1. Mucho Patches...Used for around Rock`s and Mangroves   #2. Some Patches... Used on Grass Flat`s    #3. Clean with Double The Weight....For Bridges and Deeper Water.

Spread your Net out in the driveway,start by cutting the Draw-String`s....now all you have is Net......Take a Hook and 10lb test mono and stitch all you little holes closed......nothing fancy....just closing holes...just cut you Tag End`s tight and burn the end`s so they don`t catch in the net.

Draw String`s:

If you have a 7' net,with 12 draw string`s{Count hole in Plastic Seperater} then you need:

6 Pieces of 60lb mono ,16' long

Run the 6 pieces of mono through the end of you main line,with 8' on each side,tie a square knot,then start each Draw-String through the String Seperater,then lead them all through the Top Ring of the of the net........now take 12 Clothes Pin`s and pin all 12 string`s to the Bottom Ring in equal spacing around the net,then tie each end of the draw-string,keeping Tag End`s tight and melted so it doesn`t catch in the net..........One Net Repaired

Kills your back,but it`s got to be done....or buy another cheap net.
