Location: NW Indiana | Anyone have this happen to them before? I accidentally stepped on my net and cleanly cracked the hoop part of the net. I was thinking of having a friend weld it for me. Anyone have any other better ideas? Thanks! |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | You can place a wide hose clamp over the break and clamp it tight, then cut off the extra tab and tape it with electrical tape. |

Location: Yahara River Chain | if its not in a bend area, you can insert something in the tubing (metal rod or tube) and place shrink wrap over the hoop (note to self - put the shrink wrap on 1st). |

Location: Des Moines IA | OR, you can just call Frabill and buy a new hoop. I've had to do this twice with my salmon net. |

Location: NW Indiana | Found someone in the Chicago area to weld my net back together. Did a great job and it was definitely worth it over buying a new one. If anyone wants his contact info PM me and I will gladly hook you up.
