I jumped on Hwy 90 in Louisiana heading south from New Orleans. There were all kinds of places to throw a net for bait. I cast my net and caught a big red and a few shrimp. A local came over and told me that the fish was a red and that I could catch lots of shrimp out at a point about a mile out. He said take my boat and go get us some shrimp. I caught about two gallons of shrimp in 45 minutes and headed back. He took about a quart and left me with more shrimp than I had ever had. I gave him the red and headed back home to boil me some shrimp. I always think about how well I was treated down in the Bayou country. I stay away from the big cities and head for the country where the people are the best.

I’ve got throwing a banana down to a science. I can’t wait to grab my nets and give your method a go. Thanx!

I started out with a 4 foot net. It was a lot easier to learn with smaller net. Good video 👍

daaaaaaang. you had an armored hatch fall on your wrist! you're lucky you still have the hand, right?! you're tough man.

[@allenandmain]

Thanks for info

[@Ray56z]

Different technique than either way I throw, have to try it. I throw two different ways, 1 for the 6 and 8 foot, 1 for the 9 to 14 feet. I do not chinch loop my rope on my wrist. I have it tight enough I can curl my wrist to stop it from sliding off, but loose enough it can pull off with force. You just never know what can happen. My boat, no props are turning when I throw, but with a friend he almost got the net. Jumped forward the instant I threw thinking I needed closer to the bait he was seeing and not what I threw on. Boat went right over the net and line, and even falling I shook that loop off my wrist. Prop didn't snag it, hooked the line, had some bait-that time.

[@scottweidner1613]

What size mesh for greenbacks, millet and thread fin

[@BamaSaltwater]

I really like 3/8" for smaller Baits and 1/2" mesh for the larger baits. My mullet only net is 1" mesh

[@frostizz2072]

@@BamaSaltwater does it hurt to catch bigger baits with 3/8

Anyone throw on a shark or gator with that thing tied to your wrist?

[@evabarns8012]

Throwing a pancake is waaaaaay over rated. You will get fish with three quarter opening.

I agree haha!
