It is extremely tough. Unless you have catfish with razor blade sharp teeth they will not get through my netting. The only animal I ever had get through it was a rat. They are able to slowly gnaw holes. But I have also seen them gnaw through aluminum siding. Tim Hi Rick,

A lot of the bait will end up in the net. What I do is lay my net towards the front on the bottom of the pen then lift the pen, keeping it tilted forwards until there is no water in the back.

It will keep all but the tiniest live shrimp so I don't think you'll have any trouble with your pilchards even as small as 1/2 inch, which is awful small for bait. The mesh is 1/4 inch.

The 2 foot one might have trouble holding 10 fish that big. My neighbor was catching mangrove snapper, about 10-13 inches long and putting them in her 2' bait pen for a week. She had nearly 7 or 8 in there once when I saw them and they looked healthy and not terribly crowded. Throw a handful of shrimp in with them. Tim The bigger one would for sure.

Sheepshead. I can't keep ice long enough to store my catch that long. You think your big pen would keep 5 -10 sheepshead contained And alive for 3 to4 days? Say about 15 " and 3lbs each?

I already have it tied to my dock and my neighbors where all impressed with it as well. I have a feeling I may end up be the neighborhood live bait supplier. Just wanted to thank you for a great product and also mention that I appreciated the super fast shipping. Very impressed and will recommend your company to others Regards JN Palm Harbor FL Hello
