One of the review:
by TheDonger Listing says it is the Hoop Net With Rigging kit, But this does not come with the rigging kit, it is a separate purchase. Over all The hoop nets are good but are not what was advertises for the price.

I think he was expecting the rope and bullet buoy because the promar nets dont come without the stuff pictured.

I think the rigging kit they speak of is the bridal and bridal float which is included in the ambush net which there wording makes it sound like it includes the ambush rigging kit which it doesn't. Still a good deal for the net. My sports chalet was out too....

Better to have no rope at all then for it to come with that crappy red rope that comes rigged on some of the flat nets.
I love how after the guy complains about the net rigging, then goes on to say that the net works great. Same exact setup you will find at the tackle shop. |

What you need to do is setup every single net then stack them on the PVC rack, that'll give you a better idea of how they're going to stack up

Shackle
Danjor...Try using a 3/16 galvanized shackle instead of a "clip" or aluminum carabiner. The shackle simply screws together rather than relying on the thin steel spring that closes most clip type connecters. That steel spring rusts out eventually and the clip or carabiner will stay open. I was hooping at Catalina with another guys gear last season and I watched an Ambush net sink away as the carabiner was slightly open and the rope slipped out!
Also try placing the floats inside along the sides of the nets, alternating their positions as you stack them and they may fit a little better. I can easily fit 5 Ambush nets with ropes and floats attached on my pvc rack. Having to access your ropes and attach them could be a PITA while you are on the water, especially if it's windy or rough. I'd have my gear ready to go unless you are in a skiff or power boat.

That's exactly what I do when I stack my nets. Here's a pic of how my lines are setup ![]() Also make sure that all of your lines are feed through the buoy in the same direction, it'll make it easier to figure out which side to pull.

Rigging
Rig all your nets the same way...pointed side of the float into the wind current and swell and the flat side of the float downwind with the excess rope on that side...that way when you grab your rope you won't disturb the net and scare your bugs and crabs. Be sure to put a distinctive pattern of DOT tape on the flat side of the float so it's easy to find.
