take it to bug em bait. they will get someone to fix it for you but takes a little while. i had a ex commercial guy fix it for me and he did it in about 2 hours. only charged me $15.00. i dont think he does it for a living, but i will ask for you. how bad is the repair? _________________ Fishing Team N 2 Deep

I threw on a school of menhaden that had bluefish mixed in and about 15 blues (one ribbon fish too). So, I have about 15 small holes.
I just bought some bonded nylon and a book to try it. If not good, I'll take it over to bug em bait.
Thanks for the response. _________________ Dave |

I want to know how you fix them too... Scott threw his net and it got ripped in several spots by oyster beds...
Is there a do-it-yourself way that can fix them? |

Take some 30lb. line and tie an overhand at the top of the hole.
Then make several half hitches downward until the hole is closed.
Then tie another overhand knot twice when you're done.
That should patch the small holes with no problem. _________________ Capt. John Mallette
