Hobie replacement pockets

The cloth mesh pockets that come standard on Hobies are hook magnets. They sell replacement rubber mesh pockets, which are nice, but very expensive, and I have torn a couple of them. So, I bought this silicone rubber fishing net, and I've used it to make rubber pockets:

The pockets are not as stretchy as the material that Hobie uses. Also, if I can figure out how to add a thin bungee cord across the top, then I think they'll be ideal. But, for now, they'll do, and I can make a dozen or more pockets for less than the price of 1 authentic Hobie version...

I don’t remember how well it served me, but I sprayed the cloth net with rubber spray coating a long time ago. Still wasn’t stretchy like the new rubber mesh, but it somehow helped with hook tangles
