Put your own floats on to meet the min. law requirement. Very easy to run your net out without floats and not as many tangles when pulling.
I was gonna go bigger, but someone up here who gills nets alot says he uses 13/4, and the i asked the people online what they recommend, and they said that is what they sell up here in the Northeast for bunker.

The rec net had 2" or 2 1/8" and I used to lose some every set.
