Quick take
A 6 ft cast net with aluminum ring for easy casting, catching baitfish, shrimp, and small bait species.
This 6 ft radius cast net has 3/8 inch mesh for catching shrimp, small baitfish and crabs. Its plastic coated lead line sinks the net quickly to the bottom, and a 43 foot braided hand line lets you throw into deeper or farther water. A repair line, repair tool and portable carry bag come with it, so it is easy to take along on the water.

Strengths
