I'm looking for a net for my kids, ages 6 and 7, to catch crawdads with. Would this net work for that? Thx!

Yes, I think it would be very good for that. We have birds such as hummingbirds that sometime make there way into our house and I use this to carefully catch them and return to the outdoors.

My net had the tendency to come unscrewed and the collapsible net frame kept bending after extended use. As I was only using my net for insects, you might want to look for a shorter, sturdier net, especially if it is going to be used multiple times. If you're only going to be using this net once or twice though, you should be fine as long as you're not too rough with it. The netting is fine, yet very strong, so you shouldn't have a problem with that. Happy crawdad catching!

This net is not tall or wide, and I would not recommend it for volleyball. It's fun for badminton or other playground ball games.

Yes three kids could share this. No... this is good but so are worms purple worms should go too various sizes mostly small for small bass to keep the action faster the other colors are fine but my favorate is purple. But a piece of worm or any insect and a perch hook will keep them kids busy and having fun. Just keep your bait small or they will just steal it.

If you are asking if it is tight and will protect you, the answer is yes. the bigmouth net has a pocket and is pretty loose. I use this when throwing to my sons, 15 and 21 to protect myself. Line drives back at me are not a problem anymore. Won't throw to them without it. I actually have two big mouth systems and this net. When throwing I put one of the

Yes, that should be no problem. Just wrap the extra net material around the upright and pin it in place with most anything-i.e., a clothes pin, etc. Just to add a little extra, I've found the net system to be anything but flimsy, I filled the bases with sand because it was going to be used in a gym; it will hold a lot; about 1/2 bag. Outside, water will do the job. With those weights anchoring them, they're not going to move under ordinary circumstances. If you use the set for pickle ball, you will find it to be great fun; I can see where it's the fastest growing sport in the US.

It does work well on small fish. I have caught minnows and spot that were very small in this net.

I think so. My children are 7-15 and they all enjoy this! This is the second year I've had it and the kids love it! Only bad thing is that the net for the basketball didn't hold up too well.

If the net doesn't break after 3 uses you only need a small residential lot. As kid grows up you'd need larger size. I haven't ever heard back from Easton or Amazon re: the net breaking after 10-15 mins of use. Very disappointed!

yes, I used it to catch mulberries from my trees so they would not hit the ground. No mulberries fell through the net.

Yes you can I caught a 29 inch jack cravelle at Cedar Key Fl with it. However I bought a Fitech cast net and like it a lot better. Also if I use it for a couple of hours it gets a little heavy. So if I get another cast net I am going to buy a 4 foot or a 5 foot cast net. hope this helps God bless and keep

It is based on line weight class. Check to see what that is. We catch striped bass up to. 60lbs. We use it trolling.

Yes, I taught a 7 yr.old earlier in this fishing season. He got the hang of it with some coaching within several hours of pond fishing. He caught 2 bass and was "high hook" for the weekend. Unfortunately, I tried to use the outfit 2days ago and the face of the reel flies off with each cast now. I will be inquiring about returning it...

I don't think nets have age limits. :) That said, compared to a full size NHL net, this is much lighter, and a bit smaller, so the more serious the game and the larger the players, the greater chance of the net bouncing around a bit. It'll hold up, though.

I would recommend 2 kits for 3 kids as one kit is pretty slim pickings for 3 kids. THe rubber worms can work as bait but if you are wanting to catch fish then I would use actual bait.

I have used a trampoline this size for my kids ranging 10 - 5 years-old for years. I'm not sure if the bar will be well placed for a child that old, but the size works just fine for my eldest.

I have only been using it for a couple of months. The way it's constructed it appears that it will hold up well under heavy use. You are hitting into a net not a canvas that will ware. It's easy to set-up and take down. I'm not familiar with other nets but satisfied with this one.Hope I helped - Good Luck.

I'm thinking it could probably work for that. It's not a super strong net and can rip if pulled on too hard. But, I'm guessing a baseball would be rounded enough and have enough surface area to distribute the impact, that the net would probably be able to withstand it without puncturing. But this is only a guess on my part. For it's intended purpose of keeping birds out of my strawberries, blueberries, and grapes it works really well and it durable. :-)
