In Pathfinder, is there a race (including alternate racial traits) or a trait that grants a bonus proficiency in Net (or in a weapon of choice that can include Net?) What about a class that grants a bonus proficiency in it?

I seem to remember some way to do this other than using a feat for it, but can't find it. Thanks!

The Spirit of the Waters elven alternate racial trait gives proficiency in longsword, trident, and net.

Also the Huntmaster cavalier archetype.

More generally for exotic weapon proficiency, the half-elf Ancestral Arms alternate racial trait gives you a free exotic weapon proficiency for which you could choose net.

There's other more long and painful ways - like a dwarven oracle favored class option lets you reduce the nonproficiency penalty by 1 each time you level, so by level 4 you could be net-proficient. Kitsune and Hobgoblins have an option like that too.

There's a bunch of third party classes that give net proficiency, not sure if you just want Paizo-published or not but search in the classes on the d20pfsrd if you want those.
