Quick take

A saltwater cast net with 4-foot radius and 3/8-inch mesh for catching baitfish on flats and in shallow coastal waters.

The Hurricane HCN-4 is a round cast net with a 4-foot radius, aimed at anglers who gather their own live bait. It is made for saltwater use and weighs well under a pound, so it is easy to carry to a dock, pier or shoreline. A good fit for beginners learning the throw and for anglers who want a simple net for catching baitfish.
