A landing net helps secure fish during the final stage of the fight and reduces the chance of losing a catch beside the bank or boat. Choose by hoop size, handle length, transport dimensions and mesh type.
Which landing net size should you choose?
Compact nets are convenient for trout, perch and other smaller fish while wading or fishing from a kayak, while larger hoops and longer handles suit bigger fish and higher banks.
Rubberized or traditional mesh?
Rubber-coated mesh absorbs less water and odour and generally reduces hook tangles. It is especially practical with wobblers and other treble-hook lures and for catch-and-release fishing.
