About this deal

I’m not sure what you mean when you say “every guide I know carry their net with the handle down, and the net up, as shown in the picture (that says this is incorrect).” I agree with this and this is how I carry mine. it’s also how many competition anglers are now carrying there’s. The reason the competition anglers use a portable net like this is because of how easy they are at landing fish with one hand, and since they are so wide measure the fish in the net is easier, and they allow for easy hook removal and easy release.

This elastic safety cord also allows me to let go of my net while taking pictures or when releasing my fish and my net won’t float away down the river. In the end, I have shown anglers multiple well-researched methods (Research = 37 years carrying nets up and down rivers + fishing with many experts) for hanging their nets and you and they can choose which one works best. Even though it can be used safely for fish, we prefer this net as a heavy-duty cleaning net. The material is strong and the mesh holes are fine enough for both small and large debris removal. The outer brim of the net basket also has a sturdy metal casing, making it a good choice for raking the pond liner of pond sludge. It is much more durable in comparison with a regular skimmer net, so would be useful if you suffer with heavy debris build-up or algae.

There are a variety of trout nets available from short-handle nets, long-handle nets, cheap nets, very expensive nets, and nets of all different shapes and sizes. I will discuss all of these so you know exactly which trout net is best for you. Don’t be that angler struggling to fit that once-in-a-lifetime giant trout in a tiny trout net and then losing it because he had the wrong net. The trout net swings less this way which means it hangs up less on branches and it doesn’t catch debris unless you wade deep. This means the mesh net is less likely to rip or get dislodged and lost. If the waist cord is secured properly it will ensure me that if my magnet net release lets go while walking through the bush it will still be attached by my waist which will then pull me and notify me that it came off. The tiny mesh allows for all kinds of debris to be lifted up easily, and the material is soft enough not to damage fish if they manage to get caught. With that said, we do not recommend this type of net for catching pond fish, and it should just be used for skimming and cleaning purposes. The material is very fine and soft, and a struggling fish will easily break through with enough force.

The right way is how it is meant to be used, the best way often requires a modification, but it’s well worth the time to do it this way. Portability: Big bulky nets and nets with long handles are not good for river fishing. When trout fishing you DO NOT want a net you need to leave on the bank. Get a wading net designed to be portable. Price: There are good nets in just about all price ranges and I will list them all and discuss prices more below.The only problem with these trout nets is that they are difficult to unfold with one hand when you have one hand on your rod fighting a big fish. Otherwise, they are a great mid-length net that can extend to a longer net if needed. Durability: Some net materials last long and are much stronger. Consider fiberglass nets, carbon fiber, and wooden nets, and for the net bag, consider rubber nets, or rubber-coated net bags. The elastic cord should be long enough that if you need to reach out a full arm’s length it will stretch that far. The elastic cord should be secured well so that it won’t come off unless you unclip it. On some net handles, you may need to drill a hole or tape the cord onto the handle.
