Matt,
I think what the HP was referring to was keeping your hoops "closely attended". I'm not sure however if there is a set distance for this, or just up to the individuals discretion. I usually set my nets about 20-50 feet apart so if someone is going to drive over my floats or try to snag one from a jetty, I can hit them with my spotlight. Others do it differently which probably works for them well also.

The guys who got their nets stolen had them about 50-100 yards away from the main line of nets we had out trying out new areas.
