Any advice for a Cast Net novice?

[BearLakeMack]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 3]Does anyone have any good experience with cast nets? I'm thinking of buying one to use on Lake Mead and don't want to go thru the whole learning curve as to what brands/features are desired or undesired.Also any tips on their use would be great. I have used borrowed nets before but to be good, I need to practice. Also I want to buy the right net the first time. Thanks in advance for any info I can use![/size]
