[quote=doctorxring]. For me it's any net that has a Perfect Circle Net Thrower installed in it.  I'm just like you. I've been trying to learn how to throw a cast net for 10 years, and haven't got it down yet.

From the bank, you're just going to hang up.
I use a 7' baitbuster net, but they are pretty expensive, but they drop fast with all the weight and I seem to catch bait when nobody else is having luck with their lighter nets. I keep an academy net to throw in unfamiliar areas. This^^^

I use the ones from academy, the yellow ones. Learn how to repair them, re attach lead line, repair/replace draw lines and patch holes and the useful life of your net will grow exponentially, I get way more than 6 months use out of one and that's when I was using it 3-4 days a week.

Throwing it from the bank changes things for sure. My favorite net is my TAPED Fitec SuperSpreader with 1 1/4lbs of weight per foot. But at $125 ain't no way I'm throwing it from the bank unless I'm in my swimming trunks and welling to get wet because loosing it ain't happening.
If I was banking it I'd throw a cheap 7ft with 1lb per foot from academy.

I throw a Betts Blue and really like it. It's the heavy one. I can't remember the exact weight.
