Product Information
Full details
The Savage Gear Full Frame Rubber Mesh Landing Net (50x65cm) is specifically designed for serious predator anglers who prioritize fish health during catch and release. Its primary benefit is the deep, fish-friendly rubberized mesh that prevents hook tangles and protects the delicate slime coat of large species, though its rigid frame may occupy more space than collapsible folding designs during transit.

FAQs
Is this net suitable for pike fishing?
Yes, the 50x65cm frame and rubber mesh are specifically designed to safely accommodate the size and hook types typical in pike fishing.
Will my lure hooks get stuck in the mesh?
The rubber-coated material is designed to resist hook penetration, significantly reducing time spent untangling trebles.
Can I replace the mesh if it tears?
While the mesh is durable, it is fixed to the frame; it is best to avoid sharp impacts to the net to prevent damage.
How long is the handle when fully extended?
The telescopic handle is designed to provide reach for boat and bank fishing, though specific extended lengths may vary by exact model iteration.
Is the net saltwater safe?
While it can be used in saltwater, ensure you rinse it thoroughly with fresh water after every use to prevent aluminum oxidation.
Troubleshooting
Handle won't lock in position
Check the slide and click mechanism for debris or silt and rinse with fresh water to ensure the locking pin can move freely.
Rubber mesh feels stiff
Rinse the net in warm water; the rubber coating can stiffen in cold temperatures but will soften once it reaches ambient water temperature.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Rubber mesh prevents treble hooks from tangling in the net
- Fish-safe material protects the specimen for catch and release
- Sturdy aluminum construction handles large, thrashing fish
- Telescopic handle adds versatility for varying water levels
Cons
- Full frame design does not collapse as small as foldable nets
- Aluminum frame can be susceptible to denting if dropped on rocks
- Rubber material adds weight compared to traditional nylon nets
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the net, simply depress the locking mechanism on the handle and slide it to your preferred length until it clicks into place. Ensure the locking pin is fully engaged before attempting to land a fish to prevent the handle from slipping.
For maintenance, rinse the rubber mesh thoroughly with fresh water after every outing to prevent odor buildup and degradation from silt or algae. Store the net in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the rubber material. Avoid using sharp tools to remove hooked lures from the mesh to prevent accidental tearing of the rubber coating.
