Q:

Would this be a good idea for snakehead fishing?

Answer: Stay far away, biggest piece of junk I've ever purchased

Q:

Why the handle is made of such a cheap metal that it snaps off at a slightest load?

Answer: Our handle broke the very first use and left a sharp dangerous, jagged metal edge. This was one of my most disappointing purchases ever and my kids were sad because they were excited about them. Total garbage!

Answer: The handle on the one I got is much stronger than I expected

Answer: I haven’t had this problem.

Q:

We got this net, can’t figure out how to collapse it once it’s open?

Answer: I couldn't figure out how to collapse it either, then I realized I was trying to collapse it in the wrong direction. You pull the ribbed notch at the base of the net down, then fold the net BACKWARDS. It collapses right down.

Answer: there are two ribbed/notched silver 'things' right where the net rods met the handle. you have to squeeze them and fold the rods down. it is a little confusing at first, it took me a minute to get it. (i cannot attach a photo, it seems). good luck and Merry Christmas!

Answer: you have to release the locking mechanism located at the base of the net.

Answer: There's a clip that slides down.

Q:

Is the width in inches or centimeters?

Answer: Basket width is 16 inches for both steel and aluminum handles. Nice net for the price, although I recommend steel over aluminum for durability. .Handles all panfish up to medium size bass nicely. Jumbo bass and medium pike are a stretch.

Answer: Piece of junk! Has a nice long extension but if you land anything with weight it will rip and bend the aluminum.

Answer: It’s both

Q:

I cannot get it to stay closed until needed. It flops open when hanging which makes it unusable. Can you help?

Answer: I have arthritis in my hands. The metal "button" on my unit that is used to open and close the head was impossible for me to manipulate. Don't know if this actually helps with your issue or not.

Answer: I have mine strapped to my fishing bag. That works for me.

Q:

Is the net material made from nylon? or will resist a little heat, or melt ?

Answer: Yes, the net is made from nylon, it will not melt.

Answer: Yes it is made of nylon

Q:

What is the shortest length for packing for both (stainless) the 32" version and 34" version?

Answer: In my opinion the shortest length fo pack both the 32” and 34” version of the fishing nets should be no shorter than 40”. Room would be needed for packing materials.

Answer: This net is easy to pack. It folds down to about 17" in length and about 4" wide.

Q:

Does this come with a case

Answer: This fishing net does not come with a carry case.

Answer: No, but it folds up into a small object

Q:

what country was it made in

Answer: China

Q:

Is the "Super Strong Aluminum" version only made in the 61" or are the shorter versions just out of stock?

Answer: Hi "Super Strong Aluminum" version is only made in the 61".

Q:

what is the size of the mesh hole? small enough to also catch flying insect bait?

Answer: The mesh hole is 1/5 inches.

Answer: I do not know the measurement but it is small enough to catch insects

Answer: About 1/4 inch six sided. It should work

Q:

Is this net suitable for catching sand crabs (sand fleas) at the beach for barred perch bait?

Answer: Hello, the fishing net is suitable for catching sand crabs.

Answer: the net material is has a small weave fine for catching baitfish, but the handle is hollow and broke on our first use catching freshwater sunfish of only a pound.

Answer: Not a fisherman, so really don't know. I guess it would do what you want, but that's a gusess.

Q:

Can it handle a 20lbs cat

Answer: No, it cannot. 20lbs cat is too heavy. ASIN B086QTHN3Q is suitable to catch such heavy cat. If everything is going well, it will stock in 2 weeks.

Answer: The net is a soft mesh and I wouldn't try to land anything that heavy with it.

Answer: Never...it broke when my daughter used first time for a couple minnie

Answer: I doubt it, it's pretty cheap made

Answer: No, mine broke first time I used it

Answer: I never tested it but I would think so!

Q:

For the 43" ss net, is the handle 43" or is the net 43" total? How is the net total handle and basket?

Answer: The telescopic handle extends from 18" to 32", total handle with hoop expend to 43 inches. Hoop Length is 16", Depth is 12".

Answer: I don't know the answer to your question because it broke 1st try. I really wanted it to work and ignored the reviews.

Q:

Is this big enough to capture adult chickens? is the handle too short? the premier 1 trapnet has a telescoping pole that extends from 32" to 72".

Answer: As for this Super Strong Aluminum Handle Fishing net, the following is the details,

Answer: Well it telescopes out a long ways I was actually pretty impressed you would just have to look at the dimensions of the net I could catch one of my adults but I guess it depends on what breed of chicken you have mine are not large breeds

Answer: I bought it because of a Bat problem. Which I have not the had the pleasure of using it for yet!!! I will say its not a real sturdy and strong piece. Perfect for bats, birds and small fish. Might want to get something with a little more quality to it for chickens.

Answer: Yes, it’s big, handle can short can long

Answer: No too small and does not extend

Answer: I do not recommend these for chickens

Answer: Maybe I’m using it for fish

Q:

Has anyone tried the aircraft-grade (option h) handle? i have ordered the stainless steel handle, but always looking for a good frog catching net.

Answer: Dear Customer,

Answer: I use it catch fish in my goldfish pond. It works great. It is also great for cleaning leaves and debris out of the pond.

Q:

is the net rubber or nylon? what is the net size and depth?

Answer: This net is nylon, Hoop Length is 16 inches, Bag Depth is 12 inches.

Answer: Definitely not rubber, so nylon. About 12” x 15” triangle frame & at least 12” deep.

Answer: Nylon - not sure on the size. Large enough for most fish

Q:

Is the net perimeter made out of aluminum as well or is it plastic?

Answer: 2/3 of the perimeter is aluminum but the front 1/3 is plastic tubing. The plastic tubing on the two nets I purchased did not last long and snapped.

Answer: Dear Customer.

Answer: It's metal on the sides and a plastic rope like material across the front. The "aluminum" part is just the handle and it's super thin, held together with cheap plastic.. broke on me immediately.. also, I've never had aluminium leave black smears on my hands.. this does.. it leaves marks on everything it touches, just like lead does..

Q:

Will it hold a 2 or3 pound fish?

Answer: Yes, I have handled 3 pound bass in them

Answer: Haven't put one in it yet but from its construction I don't think that would a problem at all.

Answer: Yes easily

Q:

What are the net dimensions?

Answer: All sides of the triangle are close to 16” and from end to end is 48”

Q:

Will this net hold 15 pound 30 inch trout from Montana?

Answer: No, I doubt it. I used for catching blue crabs. This net is very flimsy.

Dave Kotait : Nice and practical

It fit well in my back pack, it is light weight but, stout. I used the heck of it the other day. Must remember that this is great for fish 16 inches long and under. Not bragging here, i caught a 22 inch trout the other day and it just did not fit the net. It is a great unit to carry in your back pack if you hike to your favorite fishing hole. I will buy it again to give to my daughter in law, she likes to hike and fish.

WiseBuyer : Weak construction, not durable.

Weak. Thin, hollow, plastic tubing is what holds the front of the net up. Once that breaks (don't worry, it won't take long), the sharp metal edges then cut through the netting as well. The folding metal sides are pretty bendy. The pole itself is nice, and the expansion parts work well.

It does catch stuff and let water out... So it may be ok for light usage while fishing if you need something portable.

For a kid catching frogs and baby fish at the edge of a pond, it's junk. Lasted about a week.

Stony Man : Light duty, but will do what I purchase it for

The lock is a little hard to get to lock the net open, but I wanted this to catch my ammo ejections from bench shooting, the flat end sits on the bench perfect. For fishing they better be smaller fish, light duty for big fish. This is exactly what I wanted it for. catching spent shells.

K. Sorensen : Great net, No Strap or Stretch rope.

It would be better if it was a little lighter. I was disappointed to realize it has no Stretch Rope to carry on Shoulder attached to it. I looked back & Saw it made no mention of it. I would have happily paid a few more dollars to have the stretch Rope. Do you sell them to go with it? Contact me if you do. Thanks Ken Sorensen

DS longtime reader : Very sturdy

I ordered this to net the algae in a large pond in our backyard. The net is very sturdy and easy to maneuver in the water. The angled edges make it easier to get into the smaller spaces among the rocks. I didn't realize that the front of the net doesn't actually have a frame to it, just the sides do, but it seems to work just fine. The handle extends to various sizes, which is a great feature when I'm in areas that are tight with shrubs at the edges of the pond. I can collapse the handle so it doesn't get stuck in the bushes.

nancy dowling : Great Purchase!!

I ordered the net for my Grandson to Go frogging and catching Minnows!!
He loves nature and frogs!! We had less expensive nets and he seemed to enjoy the Restcloud fishing net the best!
The fact that it telescopes he could easily pack in his backpack.
He caught and released many frogs while on vacation!????
Only problem was that it did bend because he tended to throw it down roughly!! We were able to reshape it!!
All in all a good purchase.

Matthew : Fishing Net

When I first took the product out of the package I thought this was going to be junk. But it is working just fine. I have been scooping up good sized catfish without worry. It will not most likely handle a trophy cat but who knows! Well worth the money!

Hamburger King of 9Th Street : See update......... Great design, convenient but a bit too flimsy

Customer service reached out concerning the broken net. I had already purchased another one, same Restclould Net as I was hoping I just had bad luck. Customer service sent me the stronger net, which is the same great design but a lot stronger materials. The new net is much better for my son, he is having a ball catching frogs and fish... even a snapping turtle. I've had no issues with the net I purchased as a replacement but he prefers the stronger built net.

I would recommend either but spend a couple dollars more for the stronger version, you won't regret it. Great company to deal with.

Old review
I have to admit.... I’m disappointed. Perhaps I received a dud but the top pole for the net broke after a day.

I really liked the design and that the net was so portable. Bought it for my 11 year old to catch frogs at the pond. Nothing big or heavy. He had the pole extended all the way and it snapped at the connection for the telescoping.

Very light weight and great design. Just needs to be a bit stronger. The broken net ended our fun.

JQ : Slow in the Water

3 stars because it is very easy to fold up, convenient, and very lightweight. Not 5 stars because unless you’re planning on slowly catching a fish smaller than your pinky nail or raking some leaves from your pool, it really won’t work for any quick-paced fishing or crabbing.

So, good for slow leisurely usage. Not good for fishing or crabbing.

Tui : Find a different telescoping net..

Not same as picture. Telescoping doesn't work well as it collapses on its own when touching water. Can't keep net straight as something in the telescoping seems broken.

noname12 : Excellent net!

I need this net to care for the many little goldfish in my outdoor pond. The design of the net is very helpful, and the mesh is fine enough so that very small fish are gently captured. The net is still new, so I can't comment on durability, but I am optimistic.

M.L. : Not so great net

I bought this net 6 months ago for my granddaughters to catch minnows and they only used it twice. In March of this year and Sept. Well it just broke today on her second time using it. It broke at the net connecting to the handle, so it's pretty cheaply made and I will have to look for a better and stronger one. I guess you get what you paid for.
M.L.

RC : Folds down nice

It's a little larger than I thought and I'm not sure if the mesh is small enough to hold really tiny fishies (I haven't tried yet), but it opens and shuts very easily. I wish the zip tie on there didn't have to be there because it's kind of an eyesore but other than that I'm happy.

Michelle M. : Lands fish...rescues birds

Net is great and functional in every way. We use ours non traditionally to rescue baby birds that wander into dangerous places as they fledge. Long reach makes alot of difference. Made a great fathers day gift.

Amber B. : Not very durable but a nice net for smaller catches

The idea of this is so great. The actual product felt like and sounded like it was going to break with a seven pound catfish in it this weekend. It statutes to bend and make a noise like it was going to break. After we got the fish out the net would not go back on the ends to keep it open it was just sliding down and not opening up to help with bringing in the other fish. The folding aspect is perfect for on the kiak and not taking up room or loosing it because it drags in the water and gets pulled in. It’s easy enough to fold out and fold back but I think I have to put a couple stitches on it to keep the net in place so it’s ready to assist in my next big catch. :)

Kathy N. : Waste of money. Pole broke easily.

Broke the first time we used it. Only had a tiny fish in it and it bent. We tried to bend it back and it snapped. Definitely didn't hold the weight it said it would. My 10 year old son bought this with his own money- too bad.

Gary Goodnow : Great for snatching bats and other varmints from house and of course for netting fish!!

I got the "super strong aluminum" handle version of this item and glad I spent the extra few bucks on this version since I find it to be strong and yet lightweight. The telescoping handle easily extends to 5' and the net also folds onto the handle with the click of a lever which allows very compact storage. I was surprised at the size of the net and its either made from a rubberized material or is coated with it, and I think this will greatly reduce any tearing of the netting. I've found it great for netting up to 5 pound fish and that seems to be maybe the limit, but haven't really tried more. But the handle didn't bend or flex much at that weight. And a huge plus is how handy this thing will be around the house. I've already used it to snare a bat and remove it from the house humanely and caught a bird that flew in when the door was open for an extended period. I've spent hours trying to remove a bird in the past and with this, the bird was snared and released within 5 minutes. Pretty cool to have around the house for just stuff like this even if you don't fish.

Amazon Customer : That a 9nyear old boy likes it more than his bike and that’s saying something.

Imagine being eight and moving into a new house with your 10 year old brother and you discover a park with a pond that has fish, turtles, frogs. When Papa arrived to visit his first question was “Papa do you have a fish net” no but interesting question. Got home Amazon and Restcloud recommendations to the rescue. The rest is history except the two catch and release frogs so far.Very Highly recommend this product Light weight, easy fold, solid enough, for 8 to well, any age.

H. Wood : Strong!

Sturdy but lightweight net, bought for gushing but has also been used to catch a frantic pigeon and move it out of the shed. Delivery was very fast.

Amazon Customer : Do Not Waste Your Money

Within thirty minutes of using the "metal" handle snapped and broke. Nothing heavy was inside the net. My twelve year old grandson was using it in the lake and it just broke off. Waste of $$ even though it was an "Amazon Choice".

GT : Catch small fish

Broke the first day using it. Not heavy-duty at all. So if your catching fish they better be small ones. Lol
One pro was it folded up nice and compact.

CitySlicker : Great customer service

There is always a tradeoff to compact and lightweight, and that's unfortunately sturdiness. The net was bent upon it's first use while crabbing and after several more uses the top part broke off, severing both the metal and plastic. Linda from Restcloud had already sent me a message stating there was a one year warranty and so I replied to her message with my issue and was surprised to get an almost immediate response with an offer to refund my purchase AND send me a sturdier net. I provided my address and literally the NEXT DAY received the new net which was stainless steel and therefore feels much more sturdy (although at some cost of weight). Needless to say the customer service was excellent and its for that reason I give five stars.

Rita : Good for Kids to play

I got this for my daughter and if you take it to the beach and the sand got into the folding mechanism and now it became very hard to fold (so we leave it unfolded). I also had to put one screw myself because it was getting loose.
Overall it is a good product but quite overpriced for the value.

Bunny : very useful

So far I've used the net to catch invasive goldfish out of a pond and to catch crawfish (also invasive for my area) out of a lake. The net is light enough to maneuver but not so light that it bends. I really like the small mesh of the net itself. My only issue was figuring out which way to push the button to fold it back up at first.

edit June 12th: after less than 2 weeks it broke. wasn't rough with it but the handle snapped

M.L. : Not worth it

This net is janky. Feels super cheap and the area to land a fish in the net is only big enough for smaller fish so if you have a decent fish on, might be better off trying to land by hand. And you don’t really need a net for small fish anyway. Save your money.

Clo : Do not buy.

It is true it's compact and easy to carry around, but it's junk. First fish I caught got tangle in the net by trashing around, took a few minutes to release it. Second fish I caught the hook got stuck to the net by the eye even if most of it was in the fish mouth. After one use the hoop already don't click in position properly. Obviously the handle is bad quality and will break soon. Now the regular price for this net is nearly $25 I got it for $11 and I feel scammed. Do not believe that you are going to get a good deal because the price is down. Complete waste of money.

Steven J. Vincent : Handle broke on first use within 30 minutes

This product is a poorly made piece of junk. My son took it out to our neighborhood pond and used it for about 20-30 minutes before he came back home with it in two pieces and jagged metal edges and said it broke dad. There are numerous other reviews indicating this product is badly designed and the pole snaps in half under normal usage. The manufacturer of this needs to go back to the drawing board and use either heavier duty metal or redesign and reinforce the stress point as everyone who has had this issue shows a break in the same area. DO NOT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY ON THIS PIECE OF...JUNK.

Aanubabu : Stuck, otherwise very light/sturdy fishing net.

I recently used this fishing net in Boundary Waters, MN. It worked well during my seven-day fishing/canoeing trip. I left it unfolded in the canoe and just grabbed it and used it when I needed it. However, when it was time to pack up and fly back home, I had hard time folding it back. I had to use a pointed stone to hammer and push the slide button so that I could fold it. I am planning to use some WD40 and see if that works. Other than that, it worked very well for seven days of fishing. Update 7/10/21: The seller contacted me and offer a replacement, not that I needed it. I am impressed with the service and the newer net.

Shoppin Momma : Flimsy and reals of chemicals

I purchased this for my young son to take fishing . It is a good weight and folds ok, but it doesn’t stay very tidy. When the net first arrived the whole package smelled so strongly of chemicals. I will be returning this net due to that reason mostly, we did not try it out because I didn’t want that( potentially toxic ) smelling net to harm the fish. The parts also seem flimsy and plastic.

mandilu : Breaks easily, flimsy.

This broke the very first time I used it. It has an aluminum handle. It’s flimsy snd can handle no more than a few leaves. The net got a whole in it in the same use. I was only skimming to grab a few leaves. It didn’t get caught on anything, just snapped and I had to dig it out if the bottom of my smelly pond. This is the biggest piece of junk I ever can remember purchasing. Don’t even think about it. Find a steel handle not this garbage. I feel ripped off because I can’t return it now that it’s passed the window.

Meowcaholic : Perfect for catching cats!

I have an elusive kitty who needs flea treatments sometimes. Well, she used to be feral so it's impossible to just pick her up, I have to wait and trick her or sneak up on her, sometimes it takes weeks. This net was perfect for my issue. now I just scoop her up with it! Sometimes she see's me coming and I have to chase her around but still when i see her path I put the net in front of her at the last second and she runs right in it (lol). The netting is strong enough to hold her and the metal is really sturdy. I saw some reviews from people saying the pole broke. Those reviews were all from people who ordered the aluminum version. I got the stainless version and it's really strong. If this holds my pissed off cat, then it will hold anything else you want to catch with it as well.

Pam : Best

We have had other collapsible nets that broke sometimes on first use. The net has metal joints where the others we have tried were plastic. These 2 nets have preformed very well during use and show no signs of failing. Very light weight and the collapsible handle is a plus.

Shopping Queen : Easy to throw and durable!

Purchased this for my 8 year old that loves to fish. He absolutely loves this net. Easy to throw and handle. Very durable. The carrying case is a nice plus. Rinse, fold, and store until next cast!
Purchased the 4 foot net.

Stony Man : Light duty, but will do what I purchase it for

The lock is a little hard to get to lock the net open, but I wanted this to catch my ammo ejections from bench shooting, the flat end sits on the bench perfect. For fishing they better be smaller fish, light duty for big fish. This is exactly what I wanted it for. catching spent shells.

hoodlydoodlydoo : Feels flimsy, but should work for landing fish

It's nice that this thing collapses into a size that can easily fit in my backpack, but the trade off is the strength of the frame for the net. It feels flimsy and bends very easily and will likely break the next time I use it. For landing fish, it's probably fine, but I use mine to catch live specimens from creeks and it can't take the abuse.

I replaced this with a Walmart brand plastic and aluminum model that doesn't collapse the net frame, but is much sturdier. This will act as a backup only.

Mebcrow : Go with stainless for fishing, it will last longer

The aluminium one broke on us while trying to bag a fish. The stainless steel handle one is pretty cool. Way more sturdier. Couple inches smaller, but not enough to be a deal breaker. Very happy wth the seller and the stainless steel version.

Chris Allen : First use and broken

While we're stuck at home, I thought pond dipping would be fun and educational. I was impressed with the design of the net head, the pole however is seriously lacking in thoughtful design. First time we brought this net to the pond, probably the seventh dip, the corner gently hit the sand bank and the pole split causing the net head to be extremely wobbly to the point where if we had continued to use it it would snap off. Disappointed kid, disappointed parent. I think with a bit of reinforcing at the weak point this could be a good product, as it is I do not recommend.

Due to our state being under a shelter in place order I am unable to return this product.

Mebcrow : Go with stainless for fishing, it will last longer

The aluminium one broke on us while trying to bag a fish. The stainless steel handle one is pretty cool. Way more sturdier. Couple inches smaller, but not enough to be a deal breaker. Very happy wth the seller and the stainless steel version.

Sharon Molnar : Not 50 inches. Only 40

I'm disappointed that it didn't open to 50 inches. Light weight, once you open and close a few times it becomes easier to fold. Was considering getting a longer length from same seller. I just don't have time for that I've got physical therapy 3 times a week and and am healing from a fractured upper right arm and shoulder, with a plate and a bunch of screws. I don't have time to try them all out to see if they measure correctly. I did measure this one. Came in just under 40 inches, including the net. Light weight seems sturdy, but I'll never know.

Bruce Walters : Great product, and great customer service

I really liked this net when I purchased and took it out fishing. I like the light weight of it and the ease of folding it down to fit in a small tote.
Its sturdiness didn't last and the handle broke when it was extended. Restcloud and its owners were great to work with, they responded to my inquiry fast and gave me a refund within days of hearing the net broke. They also sent me another one as a replacement for the one that broke.
Thanks guys!

crystal winebarger : Broken on arrival

The net itself is supported by two metal thin bars and a rubber coated piece of wire that extends when you extend the Nets. My handle was bent upon delivery in two different places and I wasn't able to extend the handle. I had anticipated taking this on the fishing trip, thinking I got a great deal, unfortunately I did not.

Stony Man : Light duty, but will do what I purchase it for

The lock is a little hard to get to lock the net open, but I wanted this to catch my ammo ejections from bench shooting, the flat end sits on the bench perfect. For fishing they better be smaller fish, light duty for big fish. This is exactly what I wanted it for. catching spent shells.

Hamburger King of 9Th Street : See update......... Great design, convenient but a bit too flimsy

Customer service reached out concerning the broken net. I had already purchased another one, same Restclould Net as I was hoping I just had bad luck. Customer service sent me the stronger net, which is the same great design but a lot stronger materials. The new net is much better for my son, he is having a ball catching frogs and fish... even a snapping turtle. I've had no issues with the net I purchased as a replacement but he prefers the stronger built net.

I would recommend either but spend a couple dollars more for the stronger version, you won't regret it. Great company to deal with.

Old review
I have to admit.... I’m disappointed. Perhaps I received a dud but the top pole for the net broke after a day.

I really liked the design and that the net was so portable. Bought it for my 11 year old to catch frogs at the pond. Nothing big or heavy. He had the pole extended all the way and it snapped at the connection for the telescoping.

Very light weight and great design. Just needs to be a bit stronger. The broken net ended our fun.
