It works pretty well except for the fact that the finer sediments derived from basalt in the river contains illite and magnetite so after a while if you don't pay attention the magnet gets gunked up and the net falls off. I like the idea of your purely mechanical hanger better because it would eliminate the problems associated with the magnet.trashfisherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03815257571311602636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20892133.post-32042567592818472402012-07-06T07:31:22.856-07:002012-07-06T07:31:22.856-07:00Trevor can attest...i do some bushwacking! hah. ...Trevor can attest...i do some bushwacking! hah. it does ok. sometimes i unclip it and carry it in front of me to get through the thick stuff, but the bulk of my time is spent in the water, roughly knee deep. in those situations, the net simply hangs slightly behind me and works perfectly. is there a pain in the butt factor? yes, but it is a small one and very much overcome by the benefits of a net.John Montanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16054871605134267048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20892133.post-81549389965979691662012-07-06T05:19:40.797-07:002012-07-06T05:19:40.797-07:00So that giant net doesn't get hung up on every...So that giant net doesn't get hung up on every branch, bush, and tree when you are bushwacking to get to some tucked away water?BrookfieldAnglerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07990751656565622220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20892133.post-65733556506526450542012-07-06T04:43:27.413-07:002012-07-06T04:43:27.413-07:00Good info John.

Also, recently started carrying a scale because of what you and other carp guys have said. Can't believe I never carried one before.Tyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04510262829834562239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20892133.post-41388021865812472432012-07-05T22:49:32.004-07:002012-07-05T22:49:32.004-07:00Its a sweet setup you got.
