How do you secure your hoop nets?
I will be surf launching (and landing ) with a full stack of conicals. I've only hooped out of bays and never had to secure my nets.

Yeah, got a rack to keep the hoops from sliding off, but what keeps them in place if you go belly up?

Try bungee cords or else just pull them back up. They have floats on the end of the rope. Would be hard to right the yak with all the nets tied on.

Yea I would imagine it would be pretty difficult to right the kayak with 5 nets on top of it. Id probably just finish my landing then go swimming for my nets.

if you tie them down to the yak...if the yak flips you will never be able to right it up again.

Wasn't worried about loosing them while underway, just on the landing . I guess they shouldn't be too hard to recover if I did have a yard sale.

Only needs to catch the first two hoops through the netting. Good enough for bay landings. Quote:
