Second that motion for Percy!! I have one for adult bunker and 1 for peanuts. If you jack them up he’ll repair them as well. You can either pick up at his house or he’ll send to you for cost of shipping. Give him a call and detail exactly what you’re trying to accomplish. He’ll hook you up.

Percy is still making nets.If you want spearing you need a glass minnow net-not cheap!! For bunker a 10' net that opens to 20' with enough rope to circle the school is all you need. I can throw a 12' and i am almost 70 lol Percy will give free lessons in his back yard. Technique more than strength!! Percy nets .com. There is even an old video of the Cathy Sea with Percy and my crew netting bunker than live lining some big bass.

Percy nets are excellent.
If you net spearing I agree that 3/16" mesh is better. They're pricey but worth the investment. They also are great for smaller peanuts. (Ever pick 185 gilled little bunkers out of a 3/8" mesh net? Not fun)

A glass minnow net is way smaller than 3/8 and the spearing will not gill.It is almost like a stocking but expensive but worth it!
