Fishing requires a lot of fishing gear, some of which are used for fishing, such as bait, small medicines, hooks, fishing lines, accessories, etc. In addition to these, there are also some that are used for non-fishing purposes, but they are also related to fishing. It has a lot to do with it. If you see it’s a bit blurry here, fishing friends, don’t worry. Although these things are not used for direct fishing, it is impossible to catch fish without them.

There are many types of nets on the market, made of stainless steel, aluminum alloy, titanium alloy and other materials, and the prices vary.

Article summary
The things you need to prepare are as followsBamboo pole:It is available in the market It can be purchased, and the length I recommend is 1.5 meters. Of course, don’t be too thin when choosing. For slightly thicker ones, fishing friends can weigh the feel by themselves. After all, you are the one using it. Let me explain why it is recommended to choose bamboo poles. First of all, it is durable, and secondly, its toughness is relatively good. It can withstand both big and small fish!
Reinforced rod: This thing can be bought at the scrap station. The length is up to you. If you want it to be bigger, make it longer, if you want it to be smaller, make it shorter. Of course, fishing friends should remember that it will grow 10 centimeters above the original diameter because it needs to be inserted into the bamboo pole. A slightly thicker one is best, so it’s durable and won’t bend!
Reinforced rods
Gauze net: This thing is for the convenience of catching fish. You can choose the one with high density or the one with low density. Yes, the density mentioned here refers to the hole size of the gauze. This is up to the fishing friends. It can be purchased in the hardware market. It is best to choose one with a better price.
Wire ties: Generally, when bundling wires or other scattered things, you will choose wire ties. It is easier to fix things and not easy to open. The purpose we chose it is to fix the gauze on the steel rod. There are usually 100 pieces in a pack, which is quite cheap for only a few yuan!
Tools: Tools are needed to make a copy net, such as pliers, screwdrivers, lighters, wallpaper cutters, hammers and other tools. Because the materials above need to be processed, it is definitely not possible to break them apart directly by hand. Some of them cannot be broken apart. If you have the tools, you can save time and effort by making your own!
Tools to be made
Abandoned fishing rod plugging :The back of the bamboo pole is open. If water gets in, it will naturally affect its lifespan. Because a fishing rod plug is needed to block it. One is for waterproofing and extending life, and the other is for being beautiful and easy to carry. If you miss while fishing, you can pull it back by hanging the rope and prevent it from falling into the water!
Tape: It plays an aesthetic role. After all, bamboo poles don’t look good, and they are bare and have a low style. Of course, it also has the function of preventing hand pricks, because the bamboo pole has thorns in some places. If you do not handle it properly when fishing, it is easy to slip and break the hand, which is not worth the gain.
Handle strap: Although the bamboo pole is of good quality and smooth, the position of the back handle is easy to rub when catching fish, so it is necessary! With it, firstly, it can prevent slipping, secondly, it can prevent friction, and thirdly, it can significantly improve the grade! give wayIt’s refreshing to see it, it’s not homemade at all, it’s just like bought! Doing this also tells others that homemade things are definitely worse than bought ones!
Bamboo pole
Waterproof sealant:The head and tail of the bamboo pole are in contact with water more. If water enters, the lifespan will be shortened. We don’t work for a long time just to use it once or twice, so don’t be afraid of trouble. Of course, after you have the sealant, remember to prepare something to squeeze out the glue!
Summary: The above are the things needed to make a dip net. It may take some time to prepare, but think about it and you can make it by yourself. When fishing, you use homemade fishing tackle. , the feeling in my heart is extraordinary!
Next we start DIY copying the net. It is actually very simple and requires only a few simple steps. Please be patient and read on!
Processing: The steel bars need to be made into a round shape, which requires fishing friends to do this themselves. The gauze needs to be cut according to the size of the circle. If it is as large as possible, it will be troublesome if it is too small to be used. The gauze needs to be drilled in advance according to the position you want. Of course, it is easy to say, but it actually requires processing. It is time consuming, so fishing friends must be patient and not anxious.
Processing
Fine grinding: Things are probably there, but some things are far from ideal and fishing friends have to process them a second time. For example, the location of the bamboo pole festival. You need to use a lighter to bake it, and then remove the marked areas to prevent accidental injury to your hands. The second step is to fix the gauze with cable ties and remove the longer areas. The next step is to feel the two ends of the bamboo pole. The front end needs to be opened up. After all, the extra steel rod needs to be inserted!
Assembly: Everything is ready, and then the next step is to copy the net headInsert it into the bamboo pole and start adjusting the direction. Then take the back plug and press it up to see if it fits. If it doesn't fit, you need to adjust it again. If it can be used, then take the waterproof glue and apply it on the back plug and press it up. Insert the mesh head into that part and pour in the waterproof glue as well. Don’t rush when pouring it in. Wait for the part to dry before pouring it in until it is solid. That’s it.
Baked
Hardcover: After the above-mentioned copying nets have been formed and fixed, the part of the netting head and the roasted area are still not good. At this time, fishing friends need to get tape and seal these parts one by one. Wrap it at all points, especially the part where the net is made. You only need to wrap the roasted area in the middle part. Remember to let it dry after you're done, otherwise some things won't be firm enough and all your efforts will be wasted if you use them too early!
Perfection:After completing the above 4 steps, the last step is to perfect it. The next step is to wrap the handle with tape and wrap it according to the style and thickness you like. It is generally recommended that you wrap it from top to bottom, because the joint at the bottom is just at the bottom and will not fall off easily. If it is on the top, it will easily encounter water and fall off easily!
