Bridge and Pier Cast Nets are circular nets with small weights distributed around its edge. They’re designed to help you catch small “forage fish” which you then use for live bait.

Throw the cast net by hand in such a manner that it spreads out while it’s in the air before it sinks into the water. Hold the throw rope/handline when throwing the net. When the net is full, a retrieval clamp, which works like a wringer on a mop, closes the net around the fish. The cast net is then retrieved by pulling on this throw rope/handline.

Casting is best done in waters free of obstructions. Reeds and structure can cause tangles and branches can rip nets. When throwing the cast net out into the water, use both hands, in a circular motion.

The Bridge and Pier Cast Net can be cast from the shoreline, from bridges and piers, docks or by wading. Our cast net will lay flat when properly thrown.
