[cool]Don't make the same mistake Kent did. If you try to sneak off and practice where nobody can see you, you will miss out on a tremendous spectator sport opportunity to sell tickets. Make back your investment in the net on your first show.
I thought I threw a pretty fair net until I got down to Texas and Florida. Those guides on the striper lakes down there can throw monstrous nets with a grace and efficiency you can't believe. A couple of good tosses and the bait wells are full for a day of chasing stripers, wipers and sandies (white bass). They fish almost exclusively with threadfin shad, and there are huge schools near the surface at daybreak, feeding on the night's accumulation of plankton and small insects. Utahn's miss out on a lot of good stuff.
