It has always taken years of practice to learn to throw a cast net. No more! The patent-pending Accu-Throw Ring lets
you cast like a pro with just a few minutes practice. This revolutionary design lets you throw farther, faster and more
accurately. It has 3/4 lbs. of weights per radius foot and is made of 3/8" monofilament mesh.
Sizes: 4-ft., 5-ft., 6-ft. radius.
I have the same problem many other reviews state, I'm 5'7" and made the mistake of buying a 6' radius. Because you can't 'bunch' up the net like a ringless net, with the use of the ring you will find the weights drag on a dock or bank when you're trying to cast.... If you look at the company video, doesn't seem to be a problem casting the 6', but I assume the gentleman demoing the net is well over 6'.. This should be mentioned by the company, going through the reviews here you will find that is a common complaint.
I have never thrown a casting net before in my life. I purchased this net, watched the DVD, practiced once on the water, and then went out to catch some bait fish. Well...it worked I caught a whole bunch of bait fish and had a lot of fun too. This was easy to use and in no time I had enough bait to fish!!
I received this net and watched the video. I threw the net 10 times and on the 10th try the ring popped out of the net. I have since ordered another net and returned thisa one.
I'm pretty good with the old cast net but at times you have foul-ups. This net makes its more easy to throw and reduces the foul-ups. One draw-back is if your on a incline around the lake, it's somewhat harder to make a good throw becasue of the turn you have to make with the ring in your hand. It's worth the money.
