Camo Mesh/Netting

julian, i use a camou net covered in what looks like leaves, i use this sometimes if i am fishing on a bank that has little in the way of cover
3 stout bivvy sticks and you have complete concealment when sitting behind the L shaped windbreak, i mainly use this when carp fishing at close range but as more and more pressure grows on barbel fishing then the camou net may get used more for this too, it works fine:)
 
As three or four of us have posted pretty well the same post now, I wonder if we were fishing in the same place but didn't see each other because of the camo netting :D:D

Cheers, Dave.
 
Hey guys - My mistake. I, wrongly, assumed we were talking landing nets hence me being sceptical about a camou landing net working. :) I blame it on this week being very stressful and tiring. Quite funny mind! Would a camou landing net make a difference?

It would make a HUGE difference Lee, I can't stress enough how much difference it would make. People dismiss camo as nonsense...but this really would have a provable effect.












Probably about £60 a week difference in yer wallet ...'cos you would lose the bleedin thing evey time you put it down :D

Cheers, Dave.

All this talk of camouflaging stuff, how long before the whole matt black (no not Tim Paisley) thing comes round again?

Oh God, please no ... the amount of Humbrol plastic enamel and stuff of the same shade and finish from cans I put on my gear - everything, if it didn't move fast enough, it got it (including me) - as a kid back in the 1960s...
