Quick take
This 4-foot cast net from AHI's 200 Series uses monofilament netting in a clear, round shape with a 0.38 inch mesh opening. It weighs about 3 pounds, folds for transport and comes with a reusable hard plastic container. It suits anglers gathering 1 to 5 inch bait from a shoreline or while wading.

Strengths
