Title: Trawl Nets/Winches/Fittings??
Post by: RichM on May 01, 2023, 04:59:36 pm
Hi Guy's,
Where can I buy ready made Trawl Nets and/or Scallop Dredges, Trawl Doors, Trawl Winches, Topping Winches, Sat Domes, Net Drums, Etc??
In fact, all types of fishing gear, be it 3D Printed, etc?
Ive a few Trawlers, Crabbers, etc in the line to be built, but nowhere can I find this gear and fittings?
Links or supplier names would be great if possible please.
Thanks in advance.

The plans for "launch Out" a model boat plan show the bits you require but like everything about boating today, you have to make them. There are some makers out there making the winches. Give it a go, these bits are not much to make. Never tried to make the nets, when you consider the length and width at the mouth, where do you stow it, unless you have the net winch on the aft end. Look on the web for pics of fishing gear, nemesis
