Product Information

Full details

The Preston Carp Mesh Keepnet 2.5m is specifically engineered for the modern commercial angler who prioritizes fish safety and durability during high-volume sessions. Its primary benefit is the combination of ultra-durable, fish-friendly material with the secure FIX ANGLE adjustment system, allowing for stable positioning on the bank. While ideal for edge fishing and tight commercial swims, the 2.5m length may be restrictive for deep-water venues or high platforms where a longer reach is required.

FAQs

Is this keepnet suitable for river fishing?

While it can be used on slow-flowing waters, the 2.5m length is primarily designed for the shallower depths of commercial fishing venues.

Can I use this for larger specimens?

Yes, the durable mesh is designed to safely hold carp, though ensure you always adhere to the fishery's specific rules regarding net size and capacity.

Does it come with a bankstick adapter?

The net includes the FIX ANGLE system; however, you will need a standard keepnet attachment arm for your seat box.

How do I store the net to prevent odors?

Always rinse thoroughly and hang the net to dry in an airy, shaded spot. Avoid storing it while damp.

What is the benefit of the black mesh color?

The dark color keeps the fish calm while inside the net, as it reduces light penetration and helps the fish feel secure.

Troubleshooting

FIX ANGLE mechanism is stiff or difficult to adjust.

Clean the pivot points with fresh water to remove grit and apply a light silicone spray if necessary.

Net feels heavy when retrieving from water.

Ensure the mesh is fully submerged and hanging vertically to allow water to drain efficiently through the bottom rings.

Mesh snagging on bankside debris.

Avoid placing the net directly against abrasive stones or concrete; use a dedicated keepnet bag for transport.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-durability mesh construction for long-term use
  • FIX ANGLE system provides excellent stability
  • Includes internal pull-through handles for easier fish management
  • Compact 2.5m length is ideal for shallow commercial margins

Cons

  • Not suitable for deep-water venues requiring extra length
  • Black mesh may hold slightly more water weight than lighter alternatives
  • Requires specific rod rest attachments if not using the integrated feature

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the net, attach the FIX ANGLE bracket to your seat box keepnet arm and adjust the tension until the net remains rigid in your desired orientation. Ensure the net is fully extended to allow for proper water flow throughout the session. For maintenance, rinse the mesh thoroughly with fresh, clean water after every outing to remove weed, algae, and fish debris. Allow the net to dry completely in a well-ventilated, shaded area before storing it in a carry bag; avoid leaving the mesh damp in direct, intense sunlight, as this can degrade the material over time. Check the locking mechanism periodically for sediment build-up and clear it to maintain smooth operation.
