Questions about SouthBend LN-250

would this work to catch chickens?! I'm worried it may be too small...Thanks!

Answer: Yes it is big enough to catch chickens but the handle is pretty short. If they are in an open pen I would get a larger net with a longer handle.

Answer: I think it would be to small to catch chickens. I would think you would want a wider dip net for this.

Answer: I use it to pick up shot ducks and geese from my boat. It should work!

How big are the holes in this net?

Answer: 1 inch in diameter give or take

Answer: 1in sq

What is the diameter of the metal handle without the foam grip?

Answer: about an inch

Can the netting be replace on this net . Does it come apart

Answer: No, the net frame does not come apart.

Answer: Nope.

Does this float?

Answer: Nope

could I use this to catch a bat flying around my ceiling?

Answer: Glad to see I'm not the only one. Had two bats in the house this morning. I've been using a long handled net. Think I will order one of these.

Answer: There's only one way to find out, Try It!! Probably will work.

Answer: Yes

Does the product contain lead under CA Prop 65?

How long is the handle

Answer: From handle end to the net part, it's approximately 18-20".

Answer: The handle is 18" from the end to where the two pieces that for the loop are joined. It's a great value.

Answer: Only about 1 1/2' to 2' is on the one I bought. Hope this helps.

Does this net come with 6 extra nets?

Answer: No. Just the one that's attached.

Answer: no

Answer: mine did not

Answer: No

Would this fit in standard rod holders?

Answer: Yeah it fits. But be careful, its still loose enough to come out. I lost mine kayaking next to the mangroves and didn't even realize I lost it.

Answer: Yes it does!

Would this be bug enough to land a 30+ inch fish? Catfish in particular?

Answer: Yes. Anything above 30 inches use a gaff.

Answer: No Problem.

Will fish jump in it ?

Answer: I can't answer your directly as it relates to fish as I use it to catch wayward chickens, but considering my chickens won't voluntarily jump in it, I'd venture the same goes to fish.

Answer: Oh yes. the fish are very attracted to this item poor quality

Product reviews of SouthBend LN-250

Robert Sparkman : Nice big net, good value

This is a nice net, and it is capable of landing a very large fish. Great price and value too.

Drew Ryan : New Lobster net!

My new Lobster Net! I love it!

Alysia : Fishing net

I was amazed by the size of this net, when I took it out of the box!! Happy yes I am...Thanks.

Steven Dyer : It's pretty good!

Nice net!

sophie brentlinger : Not Worth It

The material used on this net is able to stretch, and all of the fish we caught on the river were able to get through the large holes in this net. Might be the perfect product for other uses, but not for fishing trout!

Brett F. : Correct model number, wrong product picture.

Nice product, but it doesn’t match the picture. Wanted something more compact for kayak fishing, but we’ll see.

omardavid : Good

Good

Fernando Klein Rocha : Good but VERY Fragile. Be careful using it because it breaks easily.

Breaks VERY VERY VERY Easily. Mine broke (the pole bent) as I was trying to catch small fish in a pond, after 1 hour to 2 hours of use. If you use it with extreme care (and not break it) I presume it can be a useful tool.

toast : Five Stars

Great product and very sturdy!! Put some floatation in handle and now it floats.

Silverado : It is good

It is good

Amazon Customer : Five Stars

Amazon Customer : Looks like a very good product

I was shocked to see the quality of this net for the price let you know how it does later thanks

donnaks : great

as described, great net

Andy Reece : Not like the picture!!!!

This is NOT like the picture. Its almost 3 feet long. Careful buying this if you plan on having it on you wade fishing as it is to cumbersome to use. Unfortunately my CLOSEST UPS is over 1 hour away so i hadnto keep it.

Miami Turkey : I lost it before it had the chance to break

This works great and was at a very good price.

Amazon Customer : Disappointed

Used for a cat net, already broke on first use, probably best to stick with using it for fish!

IamBatman : the netting on this one is good, stronger than usual

I have bought these types of fish nets in the pest. the netting on this one is good, stronger than usual. Product is fairly priced and is just as pictured.

donnaks : great

as described, great net

Amazon Customer : Ok

PA Lineman : No broken lines or loosing fish anymore

Finally got to use this. Brought a 19" bass into my Jon Boat with ease.

linrick : I'm glad I got it for $11

I bought this to catch my chickens with. Handle not too long and not to short. Light enough to use with one hand. I'm glad I got it for $11.88 before the price increase to over $20.

BIG WALT MACHINE : Five Stars

Way better than I expected. I'll see how it holds up.

Dandyroo : Nice net.

Hello! It is a fishing net. Rating it now is pure speculation. We need to see how it lasts and stands up to the abuse of exuberant fishermen!
