Map of the portion of the Upper Sacramento River where king salmon were trapped, marked and released Use of Fyke Nets Construction of Nets Work was begun at once on 20 more riffle-type fyke nets of the design shown in Figure 2. The nets were made of one-half inch stretched mesh, six-thread cotton webbing. This mesh size allowed the smallest fish to pass through the net and escape, but finer material would not hold up in a current for any length of time, and the fish which did escape were, in general, too small to be suitable for marking. A sock or cone was formed first by sewing together the sides of a piece of webbing 300 meshes deep. The sock was 560 meshes in circumference on one end and tapered.
