    Jeez all we have to worry about is a big stinking trout in the net.
    Looks a good spot all to yourself as well

    Yup. I tend to get a good choice of spots during the week as well.
    This flood is dropping fast and should be able to fish tomorrow.
    Still have 2 weeks off. Hopefully get into some bait soon.

    Shit yes. You have a nice easy no fuss set up as well.

    I have a bit of work to do everytime I site my net but can then sit around till I lift it, providing it is catching properly.
    Can be greedy this week and put out 2 nets as I will have the kids helping.

    Have you seen the new Chinese southland sock copies Munsey?
    Half the price of the NZ ones and good colour.
    I have only just bought one but it is working well so far.
    Works really well in a strong or soft current.

    They square or round ? , did see some grey ones in the shop but never took any notice of price etc , I'm pretty sure they where square ones . Never used one , the stand I'm using don't alloy set nets only scooping . And we close to mouth , I'm picking they are better upstream ?

    They are square mouthed and round sections/hoops.
    Yeah. Generally you need a current to fish them properly.
    If the bait are on a mission any, water will do.
