FITEC International came to ICAST 2023 two show off a couple of new cast nets they have added to their Signature Series line of Cast Nets. Having been in the cast net game since 1984, they are now the largest cast net manufacturer in the United States and continue to be an industry leader year after year. The first of the two new cast nets is the Signature Shallow Series Cast Nets. Purpose-built to be used in shallower water to catch bait that’s say run up on the bank or beach. Lighter and easier to throw it has a lead line with 1.2 pounds of lead weights per radius foot. They are available in a 10ft and 7ft option with a mesh size that starts at 1/4″ and goes up to 5/8″. Like all the Signature nets, these are made with 6 panels of premium Japanese netting that has excellent tensile strength but are still super supple and soft. The braille lines are pre-stretched 100lb monofilament and attache to a heavy-duty brass swivel.
