“You can pick up your nests and place it in the right direction, at least until you rotate it back to the original position.”

“This happened to me early on in my first ever playthrough, ever since then I always build 2 rows of nets, one on each side of my raft, just in case. Also you can pick your nets back up by holding (I think) X while looking at them.”
