The only activity that has proven itself as fruitless as cast net fishing is golf. I’d drag the thing back to the surface and untangle it only to have it tangled again after my toss and before it hit the water. For me, the net flew from my hand and dropped into the water in a big, useless ball of tangled net. I couldn’t figure out how to toss the net so that it landed on top of the water in a big circle, casting the widest possible fish-catching surface. As the net emerges, you look to see what fish you caught. Then you use the line to haul the net back up. The net is meant to trap fish on its way down. You are supposed to throw the net into the water, it’s water-laden and made heavy by the lead weights meant to drop the net to the bottom as you let out the line you are also holding in your hand. Even though I grew up in Florida, I never learned how to fish with a cast net.
