Oyster Mesh ????

If you are refering to that 'black plastic' 5mm mesh stuff (900mm wide), it used to be made by Nylex 15 - 20 years ago.    I bought a couple of 100m rolls back then, but haven't needed any since.

It must be still around, talk to an oyster farmer or contact some Aquaculture supply Co.

Hi Brad,
the proper oyster mesh you refer to should be sold at any aquaculture supply company. I know you can get some from Aquasonic in NSW, they have about 4 different sizes and you can buy it by the metre. Look at their catalogue on the web, only problem is that postage would be about $15 and I think you need to be a business to purchase (ie not public). Anyway, how much do you need.
