Steelhead Landing Net(Found what I wanted-Thanks)
« on: February 18, 2012, 07:38:34 AM »
Good Morning:

I would like to buy a landing net that I could clip onto the back of my vest but be large enough to land a 10-15lb. fish. On different DVD`s I have seen many anglers with nets such as this but I am having a very diffuclt time finding a good quality net. If you happen to know where I could buy one please email me. Thank You in advance for your help.

Regards,
swloren@telus.net

Frabil makes a good net. It is an extenable net with a fair size basket for a net. When completly folded up it is only about 3 feet long but when extended it is about 6 feet long. This is the one that I use now when I am able to get out because I have a back injury that makes it tough for me to land fish and still keep them in the water. This allows me to land them safely. I got mine at Hatch Matchr and I believe they do have a few in stock.
