good to hear heading up there in a few weeks...got one question..what do the witches hat pots look like i only have the square pots that i think are better for muddies or are they alright for blue swimmers aswell...everytime i go out looking for witches hat nobody seem to have any....

They are just a single metal ring with a net attached and a rope attached to the net. The metal ring sits on the sea bed and the net is held up with a float. The net is cone shaped (comes to a point) where the rope is. I'll send you a PM where I get mine.

Hmm I cant seem to send a PM using tapatalk.... Ok, mods please remove this if it breaks any rules.... I get mine from a big department store.
