Quick take
A 3-foot throw net for capturing live bait and stunned fish in freshwater and saltwater locations.
The Betts Buddy throw net is a chartreuse hand-throw net made of polyethylene, a compact choice for anglers who want to cast bait from the bank or a boat. Its quick-open ring is meant to help a first-timer learn the throw. At about 2.2 pounds, it is light enough to carry in a tackle bag for a day on the water.
