Quick take
A lightweight telescoping net with a 16-inch hoop that extends to 50 inches total and folds for easy transport.
This is a folding landing net with a telescoping aluminum handle that locks open with a flip and collapses small enough for a rod locker or gear bag. The soft mesh bag is aimed at catch and release, and the extra reach helps when landing fish from a bank, dock or boat. It suits beginners and kids as well as experienced anglers who want a light, packable net.
Best for
- Wading and bank fishing where reach matters
- Transport in rod lockers and gear bags
- Catch-and-release fishing where soft mesh protects fish
Skip if
- You need a large net for trophy fish; hoop is only 16 inches
- You fish from a boat; a fixed net on a rod holder works better
Strengths
- Lightweight and less than one pound makes it easy to carry
- Soft mesh is gentle on fish for catch and release
- Handle extends from 18 to 36 inches; folds for storage
Trade-offs
- 16 inch hoop is small for large fish
- Telescoping handle may flex under weight of large fish
- Soft mesh clogs more easily than mesh with larger openings
Fishing fit
- Water
- Freshwater
- Saltwater
