Best ways to store hoop nets on yak's?

Hello,

Im new here and yes I know this is my first post but I hope to put up a report very soon.


My question is , Whats the best way to store hoop nets on a kayak?

The nets I will be taking:

Two 36 jumbo's
One ambush

I know the jumbos will be a pain in the neck but there only so much money I can blow on fishing before it cuts into other things that money needs to be spent on. I gotta work with what I got.

The deal is the yak's I be using will be a rental....Have no clue what it will look like....have no clue if there will be cords to help hold down the nets on the yak.


So what would the best and non "busy" way to tie them down the yak?

This will be my first time on a yak and hooping from a yak....pack very very light...just pfd...nets...accessories for hooping...and lights.

But not my first time hooping so I got everything down to a "T".
All my buoys are setup marks weights and lights.

I coild the ropes very easy and nice.


If the trip turns out very well then I get more ambush's

Thanks for the read.

Without a rack you should be able to rest your gear
on the bow,flat nets first with the ambush on top.

I dont recomend tyeing them down because if you end
up upside down in the water (it happens) it might be
difficult to flip your boat back over.

It never hurts to have a buddy with you out there in
the dark, just in case

First post for a first post

Bring about 2' of 1/2" PVC, PVC cutter, and 2 three-way joints with u. Make a H with the PVC and stick it in the scupper holes behind the seat (rear storage well area). Takes about 5-10 mins to make and will keep the nets secure and from shifting. That's the simplest way to go. Good luck!
