In this episode we show you how to throw a cast net without using your teeth or going over your shoulder. It is a simple and effective way to open up the net and catch live bait. This works great for nets from 4 feet to 8 feet.
For cast nets 8 feet to 14 feet, we recommend the triple load method as seen in this video:

Best tutorial by far. Always struggled to throw the net, and after years of throwing with little results, this just changed everything
Ive seen a million tutorials on YT over the years, but this one is the best, most concise, and easiest to follow. Great vid. Thx!
Agree. I love how it he breaks it down into steps and motions. I’ll be able to get this figured out just by saying the steps in my head.
I agree, I especially like that I don't have to put lead anywhere near my face. I was throwing pancakes in my front yard and then of course, couldn't get the net to open when i was in the boat... damn pogies were ramming into the side of the boat and I kept coming up empty.
Hands down, best instructional video on TH-cam for learning how to cast fishing net. 100%!
Thanks! Visit Livebait.com & get you one.
Captain Mike,
I bought my first ever 6' cast net the other day, and I looked for how to videos. Yours was the first one I opened. I tried your method and bang! It worked like a charm! It felt so natural and intuitive. Thanks for a great tutorial!
3 years on and off trying to cast my 9 ft net. Watched several videos, and still couldn’t throw the pancake. UNTIL CAPT MIKE. Gotta tell ya buddy watching your video did it for me. Retired and enjoying fl. Thank you so much. Terry
Glad to help Terry.
Thank you! I have had an 8 foot, 3/8" mesh cast net for fifteen years and never used it. I watched your video and practiced your technique over the weekend and took the skiff out today to cast for shrimp. It worked! My casts are not 100% perfect, but the net opens 80% of the way 80% of the time -- good enough, and I am getting better -- and I occasionally get a perfect one. It is a great skill to have. Your video is much appreciated!
Wow! I’ve been putting 6’ and 7’ cast nets over my shoulder for 20 years. This is amazing. No more wet shoulder! Thanks!
Super quick load, throws well, easy to remember, just taught my 16yo son with this method. About the best cast net video I have seen over the years. Thank you.
Awesome technique! You don’t even look like you’re breaking a sweat. I’ve always admired how effortless you make it look. Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I’m itching so bad and can’t wait to give it a try. Gracias!
I've tried for two weeks to get my 6ft net to open. Finally I decided I needed to learn a different method. After loading the net like you showed me, it opened perfect! I was so happy that I took it to the creek and I got some really great catfish bait 👌 Thank you so much for making this video! It's the only reason I can get bait!
This is by far the best net method I've seen and i would say it took about 5 throws to get it right. I was throwing my 8 footer in the park last week and a guy across the road came over and asked me how i was throwing it so well, he disappeared over to his boat parked in the yard and asked me to teach him with your method. Captain Mike, you are a legend.
This is by far the easiest way to throw and fully open a 6 to 8 ft net. I’ve tried all possible ways and this is the best. The triple load method is complicated and requires tons of practice and only needed for 10 or 12 foot nets.
Your videos are the best. Detailed, yet simple.. Thanks Mike. Im glad you share your knowledge so willingly. I appreciate it greatly
I went from clueless to intermediate in five minutes watching this, and actually caught some great baitfish. Thanks!
I’ve watched a lot of videos on how to throw a cast net. Your video is by far the best. Following your instructions will result in a perfect pancake throw every single time.
Thanks!
Struggled with this for years. Throwing pancakes now. Thanks brother.
Dude: "If you let me catch you for the video I promise I'll let you go."
Mullet: "We got you bro."
Absolutely great video Captain Mike. Best way to throw a net I have ever seen and will definitely give it a try. Thank you. Keep up the great instructional videos. My favorite YT channel by far.
I actually thought l was going to have to go to academy cast net throwing training course. Thanks to Captain Mike it really works. I have read the instructions multiple times watch hundreds of videos and none worked. This is the method, works every time. I have even tried the other ways after learning this method and same results as before will not open. Thanks Captain Mike. Your way is the way.
Starting to teach myself how to fish salt water and starting from the beginning with catching bait, bought a cast net today, watched your video twice, and had 5 mullet on the first throw! Got a bucket full of bait in about 3 minutes and ready to surf fish tonight! Thank you for the awesome tutorial video brother!
Thank you! This is by far the best vid and technique to get a great spread. I watched a few prior with frustrating results. Take the time to do this step by step, then just throw it-perfection!
Note for myself when I go practice - 1:45
I’ll need this
Thanks Capt Mike. I really appreciate your instructions on how to cast a net. I watched your video and my confidence began rise immediately. I had never cast a net ever. Now, I feel pretty confident when casting my seven footer. I continue to practice each step to ensure my net opens on every cast.
Thanks again

After a month of struggling to figure out the best method for me to throw a net, this one was it. Out of all of the methods I've seen, this one is the easiest and shows consistent results. Yes, with even less than a day's worth of practice, I was able to pancake my 6ft net over and over. Thank you, ReelReports.
Amazingly well put together. Thanks for teaching us how it's done :) I've not tried cast netting before but it looks like a skill to be learned.
Bro, hands down, best technique for me. I've had my net for a little while and have caught a few bait. It has never really opened. Until l tried your technique. Thanks for the video.
Congratulations this FISHING was incredible, this place reminds me a lot here where I do FISHING in *Brazil.*
Hug!!!👍🎣🐠😊
I agree, this technique works as opposed to many other techniques
I put your way to the test on an 8ft castnet. I compared it to another castnet method. Your method was faster loading and opened the net wider. I did it on a brad new net fresh out of the box and not smoking in fabric softener. Very smooth. I live in Indian River County and catching live bait is a must. The mullet run is coming up in September. I have been crushing tarpon at night on live mullet and greenies in the Fort Pierce Inlet area. Your videos are great and I have been recommending them to beginning anglers. Keep it up.
Great Video Captain Mike! Very clear video, great instruction, step-by-step. I've watched a lot of cast net how-to videos, but your version is the simplest and most clear method I have seen. Went into the front yard and tossed my 5ft net over 20 ft away in the most perfect circle! I was impressed. So much so, I had the confidence to go to the shop and buy a 7 ft net. Can't wait to show off at the boat ramp! Thanks Captain. Keep up the good work!
Thank you, Captain Mike. I have started catching a few mullet throwing a 4 foot cast net, but many bad throws and partial opens. I am going to practice you method, I think it is the best I've ever seen.
Hi
Smoothest, simplest, easiest how to video I've seen man, great job. All the cats I catch will be thanks to you. I'm fresh water so I catch catfish. I use shad, great cat bait. Thanks a bunch
Hands down the easiest method I have ever seen. Thank you for showing us this method of throwing.
I used to throw a net when I was little (and was good at it) but then after years of being away from it and now having dentures I found myself struggling to throw the net properly. I looked at a bunch of other videos on how to do this without putting the lead line in my teeth (lips) and all of the other methods didn't seem to work for me. I came across yours and VOILA! Got it to open close to perfect circle first time which I am sure will only get better with practice. I appreciate the time you took to make this video. Thank you.
On of th best detailed instruction to throw cast net. Thank you
That’s the kind of instruction I’m looking for. Real and how it works in a “real” situation. I’m likin your style Capt.
Hi
I have tried at least 7 or 8 different methods of throwing a cast net. Your method finally works for me. Thank you!
Mike! Started using your method a few weeks ago... Been throwing in my pool since. Was making 1 out of 5 good throws... driving my 😜Went back to your vid... figured out right away I was releasing too early... watched again and threw 9 out of 10 beauty’s. (Your SLO-mo’s are awesome!) I’m in my 70’s... so you can even teach an OLD dog new tricks. Great Channel.... Thanks!
I went from having never thrown a cast net before to watching this video maybe 4 or 5 times and feel like a pro. Thanks and subbed!
I have been throwing cast nets for over 35 yrs. This is the best way I have ever used a cast net bigger than 5 ft. I have 3 sizes. 5ft, 7ft, and 10ft. it works perfect.
Super great, saw bunch of tutorials but when I followed your steps I casted sussessfully 4 times in a row. It never happened to me before. Great job. Thank you very much.
Ive watch a LOT of cast net how to's and by far yours is the best. I walked outside and threw it perfectly the first time. Thanks for taking the time to make the video.
I've seen a lot of cast net videos and this one is by far superior. Personally, I have a 5' and use a different technique but I look forward to trying this out to see if I can make more reliable casts.
How did it go?
Hi
I have thrown a net my entire life, just learned a completely new method. Awesome video man.
Bro knows what he is doing.Ive tried this method after doing it my way for 25 years.I use to put it in my teeth and throw half the net over my shoulder.Now Ill use both ways.Thank you brother
Just wanted to stop in and say that's an awesome video you put together! it's been years since I had thrown one and could not figure out how I even used to do it. I only had to watch the first half and nailed my first attempt at your technique. Thanks a million!
I just wanted to tell you thank you so much for showing the most understandable throw net video I’ve ever seen. I’m smoking bait now. Thank you so much !!!
Perfect video explaining!!! Thanks, Capt!!
Incredible video. The feeling of helping people out with bait on the pier is inexplicable. Finally, I can catch my own bait.
Captain Mike
I just bought my first 8ft cast net. Prior to, never tossed a net. After watching both the step by step and seminar clips over and over, I gave it a try. In a day I was throwing oval, working towards pancakes. For me, the secret was in the secret sauce, took a bit to grasp the concept.
You,ve done and excellent job in the tutorial. You officially make throwing a cast net easy for those who will stick with it.
Kudos, watched this video and 20 minutes later we loaded the livewell with bait. Next day did it again. Thanks Captain Mike!
This is one of my favorite channels, so much great info, great locations just awesome

THANK YOU!!!! This is the Best I've seen and effectively used. I'm new to the Cast Net game and I'm killin' it in the Gulf. I'm from Jersey and I've only fished for less than two years and people ask me, "How do you do that???" And I tell them that I got the technique from ReelReports on TH-cam!
This is an excellent instructional video Capt. Mike. I have improved my ability twofold. Thanks for taking the time to share your know how!!
First ever pancake in my life! I felt like To Hanks when he made fire in the movie Castaway. Thanks mate, for real!
Mike, I am so appreciative that you made this instructional video. I finally can throw consistently. Thanks again. David
th-cam.com/video/TIRAAdUCO_E/w-d-xo.html
I have watched and tried multiple methods with like 60% consistency. It's been like 2 weeks since I've throw a net used this method first cast pancaked second cast pancaked. This is the best way I've found hands down.
Great Video Sir! I can't wait to start practicing tomorrow. One thing I noticed after watching several times, you rotate your right hand from palm up to palm down when crossing your chest. This seems to give the net a little more torque to open and clearly throws the line out of your way to the left. You do this every time, probably without even thinking about it. Thx again for taking the time to teach us.
Good Job mate. Thanks for this.
Great video captain Mike. Really enjoy your videos, very informative and useful. Keep it up
Love how simple this method looks. I'm going to try it with a new Tim Wade cast net I just got. The triple load method is ridiculously complicated.
Bro. Thank you so much for this method. Makes it so easy. I wasn’t able to get it to open any other way and the third cast I threw with this method got me a full open. And I’ve thrown it 6 more times after watching and every time worked.
I have been struggling with my new net. This method is straight money. Thanks Bro
Hi
After several attempts at different throwing styles, this one worked for me. It opens every time and is fast and easy to load. No more embarrassing, helicoptering nets for me. Thank for sharing. Only wish you had done a first person view but otherwise, perfect.
Been throwing cast nets for over 40 years but still stuck on method taught by grandfather. Watched many vids and takes lots of free advice but nothing seems to make me better or faster. I've watched your vids on up to an 8' and have been practicing. Very nice and love throwing from right hand forward motion while watching bait. Thank you. I'm definitely going to subscribe and watch more vids
Good education without the BS, moves along in at a good pace, I feel like I'm not 8 years old and the educators delivery doesn't confuse people. I watched the vid twice and was in the yard practicing.
Thanks again and yes, I will keep watching.
Hell the video I watched before this took 8 minutes to describe how to setup the net to throw... 5 minutes in I forgot the first step.
I throw my net from a kayak and I think you just massively improved my throw. Thank you!
Hi
As always great video Cpt. Mike that sure beat the way I was taught. I will be trying that out next time I go.
Keep up the great work.
Hi..
Thank you, I loosely followed your directions and casted better than I ever have, when I closely followed them I was casting epic, so big thanks on a simple method.
Ok, tried the method twice on my lawn which is backed up against a lake here in central Florida. The first couple of tries in the grass went perfect. Moved over to give it a shot off my dock. Had a nice throw and to my surprise pulled up a 15" Largemouth bass. I can testify that the technique works great. Thanks for the video!
Best technique I have seen, makes me want to go get a new cast net!
Hi...
Amazing! I've been trying occasionally for the last year to throw my cast net without success. After watching your video, I can make a perfect circle cast everytime. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Great! What size net are you throwing Brandon?
@@ReelReports It's a 5ft. Old Salt. I've been looking for something with smaller holes and gonna go to a 6 footer.
Easiest to follow and most effective method. Thanks, Captain Mike!
Wanted to drop you a quick note. Until watching this video and learning this method of cast I'd been unable to catch ANY bait. 5 minutes of practice using this method and I no longer need to stop at the bait store. Much thanks for the lesson and keep the videos coming. Learning tons from you.
Can't wait to get home and try this with my net. I suck at throwing it, think this is a game changer! Incoming sub!
Hey bro this is the best one I have seen.. you have a terrific manner
Hi
I've been having problems with my net. I watched this video and it works perfectly now. Great video!!!
Great educational video! Helped me for sure. Went from a 5' to a heavily weighted professional 6' and was stumped. Thanks
This is the most informative one out there. Thank you
Atarrayas menos de 10 pies uso ese método en las grandes otro pero esta muy bueno esa forma de tirarla saludos
Great way to through the net is not my way but I think is cleaner.
Thank you Captain Mike you have a great channel
You learn something new every day! Can’t wait to try this technique tomorrow! You have one of the absolute most informative channels on the The Tube, always great info and super easy to follow directions! I just ordered one of your shirts too, I’ll get a hat too if you ever offer fitted hats! Thanks Capt. Mike!

Very helpful video. I've been seeing a lot of Cast Netting in videos on youtube, so I got myself one, because it looked fun for starters, and it looks like an efficient way to round up bait fish quickly. Definitely an instructive video, much appreciated!
I been throwing a 6' net about a year now, just stepped up to 8' with heavy weights and been struggling to get her to open completly.
Going to give your method a whirl.
Great video as usual, love your channel.
Thanks.
This technique saved my life! I can now look forward to throwing my net, were before it was banana city! Appreciate the vid!
Hi
3:50-should have turned right 90 degrees and thrown. I think she was in range.
johnthekiwi I was thinking the same thing
Hopefully, she wasn't Jail-bait! ;)
Lol
how about my method ?
🤣🤣🤣
Watched this craft repeatedly.Now,as well as hearing the terminologies and then later doing the INITIAL CAST for practice,I see why it becomes 2nd Nature after awhile.Muscle memory.
Awesome training skill.Simple,Short,Demonstrative
👍Thank you Good Sir
.27 seconds on a "HOT CAST"..works for me
Thank you, Captain Mike. I appreciate this lesson. From childhood have used other methods, including putting a lead in the teeth. I will need to practice your method until I master it. Thank you once more.
That ain't bait, that's dinner!
@@sski3466 fried or smoked mullet is great. The silver mullet are better than black mullet.
Try some.
Its a blonde tuna
Absolutely would have these for dinner

This helped quite a bit with me knowing nothing about saltwater fishing and I’m going on my first trip for my 16 birthday so this is priceless
Great video Capt. I normally throw a 5' net because it's easier to aim, I had gotten a 7' foot net for Xmas and tried all types of throws and it never opened for me. Put it away until today, tried you method and I was 10 for 10 half with the long distance! Thank you so much for sharing this.
I've tried a number of methods and this is my favorite by far. Thanks for the tip!
Awesome video, and much appreciation! My cast net amazingly opens now 🤙
Great video Capt Mike, your good karma was evident on the mullet timing!

Thank you 👍
Literally awesome tutorial, however it simply led to me just catching more algae 😢😢😢😅😅

Hi
@@joannagp1190 Hello =)
@@JesusPaidItAll thank you for response ❤
Great and easiest throwing method I've seen. Saw this same method from an Aussie guy years ago. You can throw a net from a sitting position in a kayak without much trouble using this method. Works great!! The net weights do the work for you.
I keep coming back to this video! Really good!
is there ANYTHING Keanu Reeves can't do??
He literally looks nothing like him.

This video is for people who don't know how to throw a cast net. Not people who don't know how to grow a boat, chill out.
I used your method here in Brunswick County, NC. I was teaching others on the beach and catching bait for others. Thank you so much.
What an awesome teaching video on close and distance bait cast netting. Thanks a ton.
