The fishing screen is a small self-made fixed net, which is called in everyday life by the simple word "TV". This network got its name due to the fact that in its shape it resembles a flat TV.
Instructions
Step 1
The screen itself is a simple mechanism. First, a TV frame is made - a rectangular frame. Its sides should reach an average of 1.5-2 meters in length. The upper part of the screen can be made from a regular rail or wooden block. The lower one is made of a heavier stick (you can also use a rail).
The upper and lower split screens ensure its reliable fixation in stagnant water and in small currents.
Step 2
The netting is attached to the finished frame using a strong thread. The thread must be fixed at the beginning of the stick (slats) and begin to put the cells on the thread and tie to the stick.
Here it is worth remembering that the smaller the thickness of the thread of the netting, the more fish you can catch. Fishing nets are more catchy, but they are not as durable. Netting is made from braided cord or twisted rope
Each cell of the canvas is tied to the edge in a spiral. The thread is passed from the top to the bottom, without missing a single cell, thus stretching in a straight line. The net will work the more efficiently, the lower the tension of the netting. Also, the length of the thread between the top and bottom will directly depend on the height of the fishing screen.
Step 3
One centimeter from the edge of the rails on both sides you need to make loop knots to secure the ends of the screen and the net thread.
Step 4
A load is attached to the bottom of the assembled canvas. At the top, a fishing line with a float is usually attached. It will be on the surface of the water and indicate that a fish has been caught. You can install a rigid float in the form of a dried and painted with waterproof paint stick.
Step 5
The fishing screen is installed in two ways: it is lowered on a line or rope from a boat or thrown from the shore. A long rope is tied at one end of the screen, with the help of which the structure can be easily pulled to the shore.
If several fishing screens are installed, be sure to mark the place where they are located in some way, so that later it is easy to find them.
