Cast fishing nets, or atarrayas, are practical fishing nets designed to be thrown over a target area and retrieved using a central hand line. They are commonly used in rivers, lakes, coastal waters and other fishing environments.
For importers, distributors and professional fishermen, selecting the right cast net involves more than simply choosing a diameter or mesh size.
Material Selection
Nylon is one of the most commonly selected materials for cast fishing nets because of its flexibility, strength and good abrasion resistance.
Depending on the application, nylon cast nets can be produced using:
Nylon monofilament
Nylon multifilament
Nylon monofilament generally provides a relatively firm net structure, while multifilament construction offers a softer and more flexible feel.
Polyester can also be used when customers require different performance characteristics, particularly for applications where outdoor durability and dimensional stability are important.
Mesh Size and Net Diameter
Mesh size should be selected according to the target fish species and fishing conditions. The overall diameter of the cast net also affects the coverage area and handling characteristics.
For customized orders, buyers should clearly specify whether the mesh measurement refers to full mesh or half mesh, as these can represent different actual netting dimensions.
Other Important Specifications
A cast fishing net can also be customized according to:
Net diameter
Mesh size
Twine or yarn specification
Material
Net weight
Lead line configuration
Color
Hand line length
Reinforcement
Packaging
For distributors and importers, these specifications can also be adjusted according to local market requirements.
