Live bait

Best Cast Net Throwing Technique! Throw Like A Pro!

To tell you the truth, when I’m fising from a Kayak I really prefer to just stick with artificial’s. My favorite fishing is top water plugging for Trout, Redfish, Snook, Jacks, etc.

However, There are very few situations where artificials will out fish natural of live bait. If you are going to fish with live bait very much you need to own a bait net or you will be spending a small fortune at the bait shop. Also, the bait shop is not always open or stocked in bait you need. A small 5-7′ monofilament net can be had for under $50 bucks and will more than pay for itself in just a few fishing trips.

Of course you are going to need to learn a technique for actually throwing the thing and not ending up with a bananna shaped mess. Recently a friend of mine asked me to post a short video of the method I use for casting a net that he could link to for his surf fishing site and in his surf fishing book, “Surf Fishing, The Quick Start Guide To This Exciting Sport”.  If you are also interested in some quality info on surf fishing, I would recommend you pick up a copy of this.

A couple of the Best features of this Cast Net Technique is that it is realitively simple and you do not need to get the net all over you and end up all wet and muddy. This technique will work on any length cast net.

Here’s my short video on throwing a cast net.

I would be glad to hear how it works out for you! Send me some photo’s of fish you caught with live bait and I’ll include them in the “Readers Corner”

Good Luck,

Larry Stephens
