Cast net recommendations for my son (14 years old, 5'6" tall)

A 6' Tyzac is all I use. Good price, and it really lays out better than others in that price range. And I always appreciated the .75 lbs per ft. on those bad days when casting for shrimp could take 1-2 hours of casting to get my 25 lbs. However, a case could be made for a heavier net sinking faster thus possibly catching more.
