What is a Fishing Net mesh size?

Fishing net mesh size is a measure of the number of openings in a given distance in a fishing net. There are a variety of ways to measure fishing net mesh size, but the most common is to use a micrometer.  To measure fishing net mesh size with a micrometer, first identify the number of openings in a given distance. For example, if there are 10 openings in 1 inch, the mesh size would be 10 mesh. To convert this to micrometers, simply multiply the mesh size by 25.4, which is the number of micrometers in an inch. In this example, the mesh size would be 254 micrometers.  It is important to note that fishing net mesh size is a measure of the number of openings, not the size of the openings themselves. The size of the openings will depend on the type of netting material used and the knotting method employed.
