Anyone have any recs for a nylon material to attach fast grass to. So I have a frame for my blind, but where can i buy the netting like fishing/crab net to attach to the blind so I can attach the fast grass. Thanks in advance.
 
If your using netting as wall in itself look into black nylon backstop nettings.These can be purchased in a vast amount of sizes with edgeing and gromets installed. I used these on a roll up blind for my 2072 and it worked great with fastgrass ziptied to it. Allows for a compactor rollup then plastic garden fenceing. But if your not going to roll up or fold in half garden fenceing will work well. Lowes or home depot has that.
 
Roy I agree with your points about being able to roll the grass up better to be able to store it more efficiently and if space is a major concern I'd say that is the way to go. However in my experience the plastic garden fencing did a much better job of supporting the grass and protecting it while traveling at high speeds while trailering the boat down the highway. I used 1/2" hole 48" high black plastic fencing from home depot. Was still going strong after about 6 seasons and 2 sets of fast grass
 
Had my backstop netting on for 5 years and grass and netting in perfect condition. Rolls up along gunnels and secured with bunges while traveling. I roll grass to inside of netting so its completely secured at hwy speeds. I run a piece of 1"scd 40 conduit along bottom edge of netting to add weight and keep netting taught. I,ve done them both ways, with plastic netting and backstop netting. In this particular blind the backstop netting worked much better. Just depends on your desired outcome. I do build my frames from chainlink fenceing top rail though which greatly adds to rigidity of frame as compared to 3/4" conduit.
