Before I buy something new I figured I’d ask here. Looking for a larger landing net, prefer something with an extendable handle and coated bag. We release a lot of fish so coated bag is a must.

I have a very large Frabill I paid well over $ 100 for.  It’s built to withstand WWIII —-the downside, it’s too heavy for a guy like me who fishes alone  to hold the net in one hand while fighting a fish in the other—-it’s definitely designed for two hands operation.

 

It’s essentially brand new—-my guess it’s similar to this one:

I’d have to ship —-I’ll deliver it to your door for $ 80.00 if you’re interested——my guess, with the money you’d save over buying new, you could replace the current mesh with C&R friendly mesh and still be money ahead of buying new—this one is HUGE, designed for 50 lb fish + —-has rivets to weight the bag and make it tangle-free but it’s not the true modern rubberized mesh, though I have released fish out if no problem....

 

This fish I didn’t release......the net did what it was supposed to do....
