I normally soak the nylon so it will stretch all it ever will. I do the truckers hitch twice but that may be overkill. I had a horn pop out on me on about the third or fourth net i made so i am a little worried about it. It happened during a mullet run and cost me a lot of time and aggravation.
I’ve been doing this way for a lot of nets I make for myself and sold about a dozen this way and haven’t heard anyone complain yet. There a lot of way to tie the horn. Maybe I haven’t put my horn to strength test yet because I rarely find a school of mullets at where I usually fish.
