Landing Net

Had a little mishap this weekend and needless to say I need a new net... only requirement is your relatively close so pickup can arranged. I don't know for sure but feel shipping would prolly be expensive for something this size. Utica/Rome/Syracuse Area

That's the exact net that broke on me this weekend lol... I guess I shouldn't say broke, it did get the fish into the boat but cracked that black plastic yoke. Gonna pass on that one, thanks though

If you can find a Beckman, you won't have that problem again, no plastic, built like a brick chit house.

Funny you mention that... I did some research last night and looks like Pline acquired and brought back the Beckman brand. I actually emailed them last night hoping they can tell me where I can purchase one. Seems like they are doing a pretty poor marketing job with Beckman as most ppl (myself included) thought they were still out of business and have no clue where to go buy one.

Yes I have been waiting to hear back from them also! Been weeks since I contacted them! If anyone knows where to find them help us out!

Asked the size of the net and was told "This is too much of a hassle"  and then he stopped responding to me.... Needless to say I'm still looking for a net.

What model did you get? Can you add a handle to the 4ft one do you know?

I have an old Beckman walleye net with a 4ft handle and you can't connect another handle to it. They offer  4ft, 6ft, 4-7ft, 6-9ft handles for their new nets according to the new catalog. I emailed them last week asking about purchasing one as I read on another forum about ppl buying them via email. Haven't heard anything back yet...

I bought the one with a 6 ft handle. Believe me it's big and beefy, and probably the last net I'll ever buy unless it goes overboard. If you sign up for the email alerts you get 15% off and free shipping over $100, so be prepared to buy something else you need.

Two small pieces of pool noodle and zip ties will float any net, so for under $5 you can prevent bottom loss, lol. Probably free to most because parts are all within the household.
