unnetted
Lacking protective screening
Unnetted means not covered or caught by a net.
Fish that remain unnetted escape capture.
An unnetted goal in hockey or soccer lacks the mesh backing.
The word also applies figuratively to anything that has evaded containment or collection: unnetted profits, unnetted data.
