Let’s talk hooping

[Saba Slayer]

Harry...
Hopefully it’s clips...but if it’s “hooks”...connect them evenly spaced on the large bottom ring..
TJones...you can make a net heavier but you can’t make it lighter...those Heavy Ambush nets are great if you’re in a private boat and hoopin in 150’ but for Zuniga and the shallow areas...the lighter Ambush nets work great unless the current is ripping...then I’ll add Hoopnet Heavies or zip tie some thick chain to the bottom hoop...
Hashim my friend...those flat nets have their place and time where they can shine...don’t discount them because they require a little technique...
When the bugs are really on the crawl in shallow water the “flat” nets are easier faster and lighter to pull...

The Sierra lobsters are pre-smoked this year...this is from Gull lake this morning...
