I used some tightbond wood glue and a screw to get it back together then bent a nail to follow the curve of the net. The wrapped it in 20lb spiderwire braid and laid alot of 5min epoxy to lock everything down. Only thing left is to take a flat file to the "ears" on the nail i used to keep the braid from sliding. Yall think it will hold up l?

I was one of the folks that suggested this repair method. I think it should be very sturdy, but please let us know!
well done
A well-loved net brought back for a second life. I love it!
Well done! I think a well abused net is a badge of honor among those who fish hard. I still have a fishpond carbon fiber net that I snapped in half by falling on it. Fixed it with fiberglass cast tape and electrical tape. Still works like a charm!
