Fly Fishing Landing Net Trout Fishing Net, Soft Rubber Catch and Release Fish Net with Wooden Handle Frame, Gifts for Him

This net has seen trout from the cool streams of Wyoming to the warm waters of Arizona—and it's still going strong. Lightweight, easy to carry, and just the right size for trout and other similarly ambitious fish. The build quality has held up better than expected given the price, and it’s never let me down when the fight is on and the fish is coming in hot. It’s not fancy, but it gets the job done, and that’s what counts. A great value for anyone who wants a dependable net without spending half their rod budget. For some reason, Amazon wants me to talk about the following: I guess folks ask some silly questions: It's softness, it's not super soft wood, and the net itself is some sort of rubber. It's a net, so uh yeah it's easy to use, answered that question. Magnet strength, uh, zero there is no magnet... I see the other similar nets boasting of having magnets, not sure why you would even want those. Also, they mention fishing ability; it's a net, so every fisherman should have a net. Lastly, I have not had any issues with the hook rusting and falling out of the handle. Apparently, some other sellers on Amazon say that will happen with this net, and not theirs, but after several years of use, no issues there on my end. That's the end of the silly questions. If you read this far, thank you, and give me a thumbs up! Bottom line, it's a good net, no pun intended!

This net is great for trout, crappie, bass, and other similarly sized fish. The stretchable cord is nice because you can secure it to your vest, backpack, or waist and not worry about losing it. The only issue I had was the metal crimp on the cord cut into the cord on my second use and caused it to break. I used pliers to remove the metal crimp and tied the cord into a knot so I don't have to worry about it breaking again. Pretty good value considering it is essentially the same as nets that cost 2x as much.

Great little net

Great net, however; the shock cord (sling) is a bit too stretchy.

Got sick of using my 20+ year old cotton net and having to dig or cut the hooks out of it, so I got this for this year's trip to South Dakota. Absolutely love it. Never got a hook embedded in the rubber netting and seemed easier to remove fish from.

Scooped up a buncha little rainbows with this nice net. After strapping it to my backpack and occasionally leaving it in the sun, the clear plastic hasn't broke! Works great and is nice and easy on the delicate trout.

A very nice net with the clear plastic netting which is better for the fish. 1/2 the price of popular sporting goods stores

Looks great and has held up great. Happy to be hopefully imparting less trauma to fish with the rubberized net.

Good quality dip, net
