| Picked up a new frabil power catch net. Bag is extremely stiff. Is there a quicker way to break in and loosen it up other that using it. |

Location: Hayward, WI | I stuffed a bigger cooler in mine and let it hang out in the sun when I first got it. Seemed to help some, but overall it seems like just using it loosened it up over time. I don't recall it staying terribly rigid for long.

| I would take the bag off, ball it up and kneed it like a ball of dough maybe put it in a bag and slug it with a bat or drive over it in the yard |

Location: NE Ohio | i noticed that alot of the corners of the netting squares on mine were webbed together with the rubber coating. i pulled them apart on every one and now its way more flexible. |

| I've found that there just is no good place for the net other than the floor of the boat. Once you've walked all over it for a week or so it should loosen up just fine. Mine did. |

| Try putting it in a dryer with a couple of old towels. Just don't turn the heat up too high. Low heat is fine. |

Might want to take the bag off the hoop first... |
