4 Cast Net

4 Cast Net

Although the cast net does not go back in history as far as the seine, the cast net has been around for thousands of years. Complete cast nets have been found in Egyptian tombs dating to before 1,000 B.C. Until about the second century A.D. cast nets were made of linen. Linen was then replaced by cotton which was used until about 1950 when it was replaced by synthetic fibers (mainly nylon netting and nylon or polyolefin ropes). Cast nets are now made using either monofilament netting or multifilament netting. Lead weights have continued to be used on cast nets until this day.
