It works on my pond. Keeps the leaves out.

Another reviewer gave me the idea - use a tension line plus a PVC frame around the pool to create a leaf barrier for Fall. We have a lot of trees and this is the perfect solution - allows us to clean the pool and access our Robotic cleaner, but provides a mesh barrier to keep the leaves out. We just had Hurricane Ian in NC and there were no issues with this net holding up. Kept a lot of large leaves/branches out of the pool. We wrap the extra under the PVC frame. In spring/Summer we just pull apart our pvc frame and store in the Shed.

Because of the size we were able to use it folded in half which worked out great as we were not only wanting to keep the leaves out of our pond but a weasel as well.

Good netting- seems strong and isn't overly visually obstructive with my beautiful pond. I don't like that there is a seam in the middle joining two large sections together rather than it just being one piece though.Edit 1 year later - this net did not stand up through the winter. It got rips all over where I had it attached to pole. The weight of heavy rain then a bit of snow was too much. Really it's my fault for leaving it out. Now I know to take it down after all the leaves have fallen. I had just hoped to leave it year round.

This thing is huge. The netting looks well made and hard to tear even after snagging on rocks and twigs. The netting is very light but will stay in place if properly staked or attached to a frame. I ended up making a frame out of pvc piping and zipped tied the netting to the frame. This way the whole thing is easily dissembled and put away when swimming season starts. It’s been great keeping leaves from sinking to the bottom and easily to sweep with the pool net.I haven’t even trimmed the excessive netting but instead rolled it up and tucked it under the pvc framing. It doesn’t look pretty but is functional.This was a viable option for less than a $100 when compared to other more expensive options. We were quoted several thousand for a pool cover! My friends liked how simple it was to do and borrowed my idea for their pools.
Happy buyer

Update 4/10/17 - This net is working! No missing fish since installed. Had 2 raccoon visits and although they made a mess around the pond and even paw prints on the net itself, they were not able to get thru to my fish and net is still intact! Wife has also caught the Great Blue Heron sitting on our roof looking into the pond, said it looked "confused" lol. Good, he probably sees the net and is afraid to approach!Original Post:So far, so good. This is my last hope. I've tried everything...scarecrow motion sprinkler, mirrors around the pond, fishing line crisscrossed across the pond, rock hiding structures at the bottom of my pond, everything! And still these darn Herons are getting away with my koi and gold fish. Up til now, the scarecrow was doing a great job by itself but when the battery dies in it (and I don't know it's dead) then it's open season on my pond. I'm hoping this net will be the final piece in my solution to keep my koi safe. I've lost at least 30 fish over 2 years and 4 of my prized koi. My last and largest koi was taken a few months ago by a raccoon of all things. Again, scarecrow was in place but did not deter this hungry racoon. Hoping this netting will work.Very fast shipping, arrived the next day! Nicely packaged. Net itself is a nice vinyl/plastic mesh, small squares. Easily unwraps for installation and easy to cut to trim around the edges of my pond. Hopefully it's strong enough to hold back the beak of a Heron but will have to wait and see. I installed it ~ 6-7" above the water line in my pond (I anchored it with camping stakes from Walmart, 50cents each). Net is almost invisible and does not block the view of the pond or fish, very happy about that! Previously I had used "clear" fishing line but it looked awful. So far, so good, very happy with this net. Will update this review if I see it's deterred the birds or if it hasn't worked. Pic attached is with the netting in place, can't even see the net :)

Pros:This net is a nice, big sizeThe weave is very fine. It even catches some of the fir needles!It is virtually invisible over the pond, so we can still see and enjoy the fishSeems durable as we have it stretched quite tight, suspended above the water and held down with rocks all around the edges. It hasn't torn.Cons:As others have said, there is a WHITE seam right up the middle of this net. Of all the ridiculous, easily fixable problems, I cannot believe that this company continues to sew a black net with white thread. If they would just switch-out the spool of thread for a black one, the problem would be solved. The seam would be totally invisible and I would have given this 5 stars. Absolutely ridiculous that they don't care to listen to the customers and make this one little tweak.The rest of the net is nearly invisible, but it looks like we have suspended a white fishing line over the middle of our pond. Fabulously functional, but annoying.

The size I bought was way too big but I knew it would be. it was all that was available at the time. It was awful trying to cover the pond as we could not see it and kept stepping on it and getting tangled up. I will say that it is tuff stuff. All the yanking and stepping on we did, plus out Great Dane stepping through it once while over the pond and not one hole. It was nice that it was black after we got it on, as the fish were clearly visible and I even liked the white line because if it hadn't been for that, I would have had no idea which way was up. All in all it has worked well for the price. The only thing better would be the nylon ones, with nylon around the edges. That's the ideal but also the most expensive. Someday I will probably bite the bullet and get one. I have probably bought enough cheaper ones to pay for it.
