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:

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.

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:

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.

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. :)

AlanS : Fits in My Tackle Box!

...and I don't have a large tackle box (19" wide). This thing addressed every need that was in my head and then some. I wanted something inexpensive and it was the least expensive by a lot as I recall. I wanted something easy to open and fold - check. I wanted it to fit in the bottom of my tackle box - check. I wanted it to be lightweight but sturdy enough to do the job - check. I wanted a full size net and mouth on the net - check. If it isn't obvious, I was impressed. I figured it would be a last resort kind of thing sitting in the bottom of my tackle box but it is a genuinely solid product.

Ramblincowboy : I was sadly mistaken!

So sorry, I have to change this review but , looks were deceiving! This looked like a very sturdy metal pole frame! But sadly it isn’t! It bent and broke after first use! I would compare the metal used in making this as metal from a soda can!

R Kreischer : Handle and net are the length of TOOL

Hand is not 50 inches long, I believe the whole thing net and all is 50 inches. Has issues getting leaves off the bottom of the KOI pond. All and all not bad if you take your time, and USE two hands when lifting things out of your pond. Didnt realize I had to twist the extention tube at first to lock it in. But, after that it stays extended

Michael Auflick : Reasonably Priced Light Weight Telescoping Fish Net

I have not yet had the opportunity to try this product on an actual fishing excursion; however, my indoor inspection and testing of the product have left me very satisfied. The folding and telescoping features of the net and pole are easy to utilize. And the pole appears to be reasonably sturdy when fully extended.

The product is compact and light enough to be an easy addition to my backpacking gear for my longer hiking trips into the wilderness. It is also easy to attach externally to the daypack that I use to carry my fishing gear when I am driving to a fishing location.

It would be nice if the product came with a velcro strap to wrap the net tightly around the collapsed pole when it is being transported. Another nice addition would be a stuff sack to compress and protect the netting when it is being transported in a backpack or other gear carrying bag. These items are easy to buy separately and I will do so to help keep this equipment protected.

As most of the fish I catch weigh under 5 lbs with only a few of the bass or catfish I am lucky to catch even roughly approaching 10 lbs.; I believe the netting will be sturdy enough to hold whatever I catch without sustaining any tears or damage. However, for someone who wants to use this net to land bigger fish, I would think they may encounter some problems with the net tearing.

In summary, this is a pretty good and easily transportable fishing net for a very reasonable price.

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.

B : Great design just a little weak

I'm constantly on the road and have compact durable fishing gear is a must. I typically fish for bass and pan fish. I enjoyed that the net could extend and fold into a small package. However after using it to land a bass and 3 panfish the housing on the poles 2nd extension bent. The 2nd extension now either cant fully tighten or extend and is stuck in place . The net is still usable with outfully extending it.

Ed : Good net for the price

I have used both the aluminum and stainless steel nets and agree with most people in saying the aluminum net is a bit flimsy when going for fish heavier than 3lbs when fully extended. On the other hand, i have not had any issues with the stainless steel net. I have netted some descent size bass and trophy trouts and its been working great. I also love the fact that its collapsable as i hike to several of my fishing spots.

For the price, i think that it is definitely worth a try!

Rose Reed : Multiple use product

I bought this product to use for snagging bats that somehow make their way into my home. My neighbor always brings his very large net to use and I got tired of having to call for help. Honestly...and thankfully, since I bought the net I haven't had an intrusion again. I'll be more than happy if this product is my good luck charm and I don't encounter any more of those pesky little creatures!

TeeCee : You get what you pay for.......

Seems ok quality, but does not extend to 50" was expecting a little longer pole on the net. Well, used this net one time, piece of junk. Some of the strands in the net broke and the pole will bend if it holds anything larger or heavier than a fart. Please save up a little more money and buy a quality product that will hold up. Cheaply made...

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.

Alex D : Seemed great, but is pretty delicate when extended

So, my initial review upon receiving the net was five stars, as I had reviewed when the item came and seller requested a review via email. Unfortunately, on using it for the first time, the net broke, so I'm amending my review. I still think this is a decent net, especially for the money, but only for gently guiding smaller fish out of the water when they've been caught. I did take it out for crabbing, and it worked well - big enough to scoop up a blue crab, but small enough not to be unwieldy. However, as we were waiting for crabs to start biting the bait, I tried to catch a few schooling baitfish by holding the net underwater and quickly scooping the fish up as they swam over. The weight of the water from trying to move the net that quickly while fully extended was too much for the handle, and it snapped at a connection point. I managed to push the handle in and screw it back together well enough to use for the rest of the morning, but it was a huge bummer. If you do buy this net, I'd advise that it is stronger when the two separate extending parts are not fully extended. You miss out on a bit of reach, but it's much less of a risk.

The good thing is, everything else about my initial review holds true. This net folds and fits perfectly in the side pocket of my bag, and genuinely weighs next to nothing. It does extend quite far, allowing for a lot of reach doing things like crabbing. I hope to see if I can take it apart and fix it.

Notrozer : Better than the reviews

I read other reviews and belive people have this wrong... Its not the strongest net in the world because its a folding net. I use it to catch my chickens when i need to move them from one coop to another.. This net has been great investment fort the price point that it exist in...

healthy living : So far it fits the bill.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my mom who is an avid golf player. I got the idea to get her a collapsible net after I heard her talking about how one of her golf partners lost a ball in the water, as they were not able to reach it with whatever implement they had. I wanted it to be thin and compact so that it would not take up much room in her golf bag nor be cumbersome. I also looked for the max extension… this net fit all these requirements.
i have not taken it out of the original packing...well because its a Christmas gift.....Hopefully it will work well for the use I have in mind! More to follow after Christmas!

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.

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.

Peggy Braman : Fish Nets

So far love these nets. Bought them to keep on hand for the grandchildren they are catching salamanders with them in the pond. They are a good length as it keeps the kids able to reach just a safe distance. Have snagged them on a few bushes already and the net did not rip. Happy with purchase.

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.

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.

CatMc : Not good for kids in shallow water.

Broke almost immediately. Only good for scooping up a hooked fish on line in deep water. Not good for catching things in shallow water, like small creek fish, crayfish or frogs at the edge of a pond because the end of the net is too fragile to withstand scooping against rocks, sticks, ground, etc. I would not recommend this for kids.

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.

B : Great design just a little weak

I'm constantly on the road and have compact durable fishing gear is a must. I typically fish for bass and pan fish. I enjoyed that the net could extend and fold into a small package. However after using it to land a bass and 3 panfish the housing on the poles 2nd extension bent. The 2nd extension now either cant fully tighten or extend and is stuck in place . The net is still usable with outfully extending it.

George H. Edwards : Lasted only 4 months before cheap aluminum handle broke in half. Don’t buy unless for an aquarium.

Purchased this 4 months ago for picking up leaves in my pond and today, it just broke in half. I should have known that the telescopic thin aluminum pole would not be able to handle the weight of wet leaves but to just break in half? Now, I’ve duct-taped it back together and will just have use it for very light load. In short, don’t buy pond/fish nets with cheap aluminum poles made in China. On the bright side, I hope the Chinese used the same poor quality aluminum on their fighter jets & warships ;-)

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.

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.

Brother Bill : It's a good net

I was concerned about the size when ordering. But it's actually a good size. I only used it once so four stars for sturdiness because I don't know how long it will last. I ordered the stainless steel handle so hopefully it will last long.

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.

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.

Douglas Meagher : Great design!

I had a short, serviceable fishing net for years, but it didn't do the trick when fishing from a boat and having to retrieve a catch over the side. And even though it was small, it was still bulky for stowing away. So far, I am thrilled with the versatility and compact design of this new net. It also came at a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend!

GSLady : Folding feature not a plus

I was so excited to have this net for teaching about pond bugs. I thought the folding feature would be a big plus. The part of the ring that folds broke in the very first class! When I got home, I rethreaded the net in the hoop and duct-taped the hoop back together. I wasn't fishing with this, so nothing was heavy at all. The fix seems to be holding. Now the net doesn't want to fold. Something in the mechanism is corroded. I air it out after each use. (A test of the area and 3 classes) I have had the net only 2 months! I wouldn't buy this again.

jkrispies : Folds Well, Extends to a Good Length

This folds up relatively small and extends out to a good length. I would warn that while it folds down to a convenient size, it's still a bit too large to fit into my tacklebox, which I think is a pretty "normal" size. I guess a hardcore fisherman might have a hardcore box that's larger than mine, but for the typical once-a-year fisherman like me, it will have to be carried outside the box.

kala brewster : Best net there is

So impressed. We have bough so many nets and they never hold up. This net is perfect! It is every firm! The extension part is solid! We have used it for fishing, and catching frogs. You won’t find a better one. This is a family owned business and they checked in right away to make sure we were happy! I will be getting another one, and recommend to all!

Amazon Customer : Do NOT waste your money

I am so disappointed in this product. I purchased this net for my tweens to use in our pond, to catch tadpoles and frogs and turtles. They used it three times in one week and were having wonderful success with it when the pole snapped in half! Three uses for $15 - what a sad waste of my money...

OdieKai : Light weight & solid, but difficult to fold (at least for me)

The fishing net was delivered on time, and was packed safely to avoid any possible damage during shipping. For my particular case, although as pictured in the listing, the item itself did not work for me. The metal "button" that has to be used to open the head of the net is too difficult for my arthritic hands to manipulate. For this reason, I had to return the item.

CatMc : Not good for kids in shallow water.

Broke almost immediately. Only good for scooping up a hooked fish on line in deep water. Not good for catching things in shallow water, like small creek fish, crayfish or frogs at the edge of a pond because the end of the net is too fragile to withstand scooping against rocks, sticks, ground, etc. I would not recommend this for kids.

Thomas Logan : misleading length

Received this net in time for our fishing trip. Net was sturdy for what we fished for, Stocked trout in a pond. 12-14 inch average. Would have rated as 5 star except for the misleading claim to its length. The fully extended does description does not meanthe length of the fully extended pole, fully extended included the length of the pole and the length of the net. Net os 15 inches long

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.

Rob Varney : needs to be stronger!!

When I received the net I was pretty excited, as I loved that it was so compact! First day out on the lake and was playing around catching little bluegill and it just broke in half.. I think the secret is not to extend it out. But then why buy this on, right? Just buy one that is sturdier and doesn't extend out. Great Idea but they went short on the stick part of the handle

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.

MadOnline : Your Hook Will Snag and Never Come Out

Took this net to the lake for Kokanee fishing. My hooks got caught in this net on every single fish. The fine mesh of his net made it impossible to remove, had to cut them out, so left with several small holes in my net. Yes I know how to remove a barbed hook, this net made it near impossible. Get something with a rubber or hook-friendly mesh. Also it is quite flimsy, so unless you are bring the fish right up to you, get something more sturdy.

Falcon73 : Nice lightweight net

The net was perfect for what we wanted. We often cruise the Tampa Bay waters on a pontoon boat and too often see plastic waste floating in the water. The Restcloud net was perfect for fishing the plastic out of the water - folds up nicely for storage, good extending handle length, decent net depth for our use, and sturdy..
I realize the net was designed for landing fish, but can't speak to that.
