Classic ingenuity, be interested to see what a catch would look like! I’ll look out for you’re next solo drag net video!

Thanks bud I've always wanted to see how to set the net on your own. So anyway was that an incoming tide or an outgoing one just a bit curious that's all.

All good koro. You've shown us how it's done and that's important. I'm sure if you had gone back the next day you might have got something. Good effort and thanks for sharing

That's called set netting. Illegal in a lot of places now ,especially in bays due to the endangerment of blue nose dolphins .

@@readyandwaitingwithasupris3693 set netting is when you've anchored both ends, so technically not.

Dude put a fish board out with a float onit using your car and ropes

Ya life's probably a drag anyway

Hey thanks for sharing that, a couple of questions - how long is the net you were using? So it it looked like you found a rip on the beach and drifted your net down the current. Does it matter how far out you let the net drift? Is further better? Thanks

The net is 30mtrs with 20mtrs of rope. a 40-60mtr net is to much to handle and for how far out not that far as chasing mullet but do pick up the odd snap&trev's .didn't like been on the deep end all the time.

@@90millie20 Hey great information - if I use a longer net I would probably need an extra pair of hands to pull it in. One more question - can you catch them year round or is it really the spring-summer-autumn months that they are in close?

All year round good luck!

So is this method legal or illegal? It'll be a good method to help regulate by catch and non targeted species can't find anything on Mpi website about it either

Ring MPI and find out, they'd be more than helpful in answering your question I'm sure.

That's very simple. I have new 20 metre net. I could drift it down the local river. Mullet are definitely there - have foul hooked one so far, but that's maybe one fish per 100 casts.

I just found out today all draft netting is band from 01/10/2020, look on MPI webb site, and that is for all NZ they have also taken the kaipara harbour Manukau harbour for from Maui dolphin protection Gosh

Not sure if that would be legal bro... almost beach seining with the rope attached ? My grandfather used to use his horse to anchor one side..lol. but same deal with extra rope

No different to casting your surf cast out and getting nothing. Recast... try again. Unfortunately that's fishing🎣

Can't call that fishing. Just looking for a greedy short cut. Not impressed.

Nothing gready about that why dont you try it I think its a great idea using the RIP to take the net out beats going and buying it from the supermarket

Fishing is fishing at the end of the day. As long as no one else is swimming in close vicinity to the net it is quite safe, it probably wouldn't hurt to throw a bouy on the deep end of the net, but not really neccesary when its only out about 50 metres and no ones around. Everything he did was safe for him and safe for everyone else, the net looked to be the legal size, so no issues there. Not sure why you put the word greedy in your sentence, it doesn't even make sense? Also nothing wrong with getting out there by himself, what if he didn't have anyone else that wanted to go fishing. You call him greedy and he didn't even catch 1 fish? I think you have issues mate. This is Kiwi ingenuity at its finest, someone thats thinking outside of the circle, he is not breaking any laws, because he is dragging the net all by hand. Leave the guy alone bro. Lastly I am sure everyone would like to see you come up with something new and post it on KZread so we can all comment on your ingenuity (if you have any)? Now theres a challenge for ya. Lastly thanks for sharing 90 millie, its much appreciated.
