That net is not actually a "bully net" even though it is labeled as such. A bully net has a 90 degree bend. I googled for a picture and this website sells bully nets: Blue Crab Assassinator

You are 100% corect, the net in the previous post is not - thanks for the link
I'd be currious to hear from folks who have actually bully netted, from the surface, at night - I could be wrong but I'm sure its more difficult than it looks.
Anybody actually done it?
It is not hard at all. The net is about 18" - 24" round with a deep 24" net attached to a long 8' handle. You do need an underwater light attached to a pole.
The light is a DIY just need a standard blub, socket, wire, pole, 12v battery.
Have fun and bring lots of beer..

That lobster net on the Blue Crab Assassinator website would be easy to use from a boat - just net them and reverse the net on the deck, but trying to wrestle a lobster out of all that netting would be a mess underwater. Still easier to just tickle and grab 'em. Use a looper if you gotta.
I will --->never<--- go and just shove my whole arm up to the shoulder into a hole for any lobster. I'm amazed everytime I see that, but then those lobster lunatics who do it get a special gleam in their insane eyes when they're on the hunt.
