Able to handle almost everything from netting silver fish on light tackle through to bundling big ...Able to handle almost everything from netting silver fish on light tackle through to bundling big carp into them, plus it has the finest mesh out of the range at 2mm thick which makes it ideal for hair-rigged baits as they can't get caught in the mesh, which can often destroy your rig in the process. To go with the range of keepnets, they have designed four different heads to cover any fishing situation that you're likely to find yourself in, either on a commercial or when fishing matches on rivers and canals. The alloy frames are made from an incredibly strong substance for extra strength, plus with a durable moulded spreader block and good quality screw thread complete with rubber washer so there is no twist when they're attached to a handle. Match and pleasure anglers are going to love. A fish-friendly super soft mesh has been used so that you can look after your catch as much as possible, and a dark finish helps to keep the fish calm whilst they are inside.
