The Matrix Horizon X Class Landing Net Handle (GLN056) is designed for competitive and recreational anglers who require a balance of rigidity and weight savings. Built with ultra-strong, high-modulus carbon, this 4m handle provides excellent reach for various fishing scenarios, though its length requires careful handling in tight vegetation to avoid unnecessary stress on the joints.

Yes, it features a universal screw thread that is compatible with almost all standard landing net heads.
The handle is designed with a dual-thread system; you can choose which section to screw your net head into to achieve either the 2.8m or 4m length.
The handle is constructed from high-modulus carbon, which provides a high stiffness-to-weight ratio.
Yes, carbon is unaffected by water, and the brass threads are nickel-coated to prevent rust.
Yes, it is highly recommended to use the storage tube to prevent impact damage, as high-modulus carbon can be brittle if struck against hard surfaces.
Clean the threads with a damp cloth to remove dried debris or silt. Avoid using metal tools to force it open.
Ensure the joints are clean and dry. Check for small grains of sand and wipe down with a microfiber cloth before assembly.
Verify that you are using the correct length for the weight of the fish; move to the 2.8m setting for heavier fish to increase structural stiffness.
To set up, simply choose your desired length and thread your standard landing net head onto the nickel-coated brass fitting. Ensure the thread is tightened firmly but not overtightened to protect the brass. For maintenance, keep the joints free of sand and grit, as these particles can cause friction and wear on carbon surfaces. Rinse the handle with fresh water after fishing in salt or brackish water to maintain the integrity of the brass threads. Always store the handle inside the provided plastic tube to prevent accidental impact damage during transport.
