hey doc I fish in michigan we fish off bridges and walls quite often. I've made several drop nets they work great. lower them a couple feet below the surface drift the fish over it and lift. I've landed 25 to30 lb. fish this way. to make a net buy the net bag netcraft or tackle shop. length of rope about 10 feet longer than the highest spot you fish. make three leggs of the rope about 3 feet above the hoop works best. 1/2" steel rod about 10 foot long to make the hoop works good bend in circle slide net on then weld or tie wire it together welded works alot better. space the three ropes so its level when held up by the main line. good luck and catch something BIG.
