Product Description

Landing nets are an important and necessary tool for all fishermen. However, because of their size and shape, they can be difficult to store and take up valuable space in your boat. But now with the KastKing Madbite folding landing nets, you can always have a high quality, lightweight net close at hand and never in the way.

Madbite nets are available in two sizes and because of the patent pending design, will quickly fold for easy storage in any boat. The smallest net is 20” long x 16” wide and 20” deep with a handle that extends to a full 45” long. The larger net is 24” long x 20” wide and 24” deep with a handle that extends to 76” long.

Easy storage is possible with the solid and secure, patented folding design made of industrial strength graphite combined with aluminum and stainless steel. This net is very light but will handle the biggest fresh and saltwater fish with ease and without flexing or weak points. This is the last net you’ll ever need and you’ll wonder why it has never been done before.

The net material is made of a rubber coated, hook friendly material that not only keeps hooks from getting tangled but is also gentle on fish for effective releases. After landing your fish you can quickly get a total length measurement by using the ruler that has been printed on the handle.

These nets weigh only 1.4 and 2 lbs and will store in their own storage case. Total storage size is only 27” long x 8” wide for the small net and 33” long x 10” wide for the larger model.

Questions about KastKing Fishing Net Folding Landing Net – Super Strong, Easy to Carry Store,as Strong as Heavy Duty One-Piece Landing Net…

Will this hold up to toothy fish? Kingfish/Mackeral/etc that are going to be released?

Answer: I believe so. The basket holds up to hooks and stuff fine, I guess if you left the fish in the net and let it chew on it it might wear it out lol.

Answer: The coated material used on this net will probably not hold up for netting toothy fish on a regular basis. There are folding nets by Stowaway that use the heavy twine but cost over 3x more.

Answer: It should hold up as well as any net

Answer: Your big are we talking? Just your run of the mill mackerel, yes. Kingfish >30" no.

Answer: I believe so, it's pretty sturdy. But I'm catching bad, trout, and salmon. So i can't say for certain

Answer: Absolutely!

Is this Saltwater marine durable?

Answer: Seems pretty durable so far however I have only owned mine for 6 months. It does feel sturdy

Answer: I would think so. The materials used in the design of this net is aluminum and graphite/plastic components with a rubber netting material. I really like this net. It works well for my bass fishing application.

Is this net knotless? I am in WA state and many of the waters are selective gear which specify that the net must be knotless.

Answer: It is rubber. No knots. And pretty big!!

Answer: It is knotless, the bottom is sewn in with a strip.

Answer: Yes. Its rubber.

The nut on the inside of the net handle popped off can I get a replacement nut?

Answer: Call kastking. Kastking.com has phone number

Answer: I’m sure a hardware store will have one.

what is the top rim of the net like? The ones that collapse inward are very flexible at the top which isnt good for scooping frogs, crayfish etc out

Answer: The top rim locks into place and seems quite sturdy and strong. You should not have too much trouble scooping frogs and crayfish. However I would be cautious netting a large fish (say something more than 20 pounds).

Answer: The hoop of this net is ridged. I don’t notice any flexing of the bow. I use the net for bass, walleye and occasional northern pike. Hope this sheds some light on your concerns.

how big are the holes?

Answer: Small hole net. One downside for me.

Can you buy replacement net for this one

Answer: At this time we do not sell replacement nets.

Why this net in not made larger? For big saltwater fish a hoop 40 wide needed???

Answer: Check out Frabill nets!

What is the best way to attach a lanyard to the handle? I like to wade and it would be nice to attach to my waders

Answer: Hi Robert,

Answer: I would just drill a hole in the handle. Its aluminum so no worries their. If you are concerned a little touch up paint should do it.

How does this net do with treble hooks? Do they get hung up in the netting?

Answer: I don't have this particular net, mine is the KastKing Fishing Net Folding Landing Net, but I find it pretty awesome. trebles may get hung a bit, but I've not noted the hook penetrating the net material which has been where the real problems lie... Hope this helps!

Answer: Its is a great net.no hook hang ups to mention .well made.a great buy.been fishing 40 yrs.great net

Answer: No. I love this net!

Answer: Have not had any problems with any kind of hooks or line.

How come the images are not showing the MadBite net but the video does? What net would i get if ordered?

Answer: While I got the MadBite net when I ordered this I can't say for sure you will? I would assume you will get the same as I did.

Answer: It gives you the options of which net you want in the drop down menu .. I've got both sizes and they're very good nets for the price ....

Answer: I didn't notice that they were different. i got the one shown in the video.

Net parts the part that folds on the handle

What is the diameter of the net mesh holes?

Answer: A little less than 1/2”

Is this net strong enough to handle large catchfish between 10-30 pounds

Answer: I have the largest landing net (24" with extended handle) available and I routinely catch large flathead, blue and channel cats in both rivers and lakes. I was able to land a 40 lb flathead, with the handle fully extended, while reaching into a fast current river. You should be fine.

Answer: I probably would not recommend this for fish that big especially if you are catching them that large of a regular basis. I mainly use mine for bass and crappie which it's perfect for.

Answer: Absolutely with question!

Answer: Yes it is capable.

Is the 24" version big enough for salmon and steelhead?

Answer: Should be it's pretty big net!!

Iam looking for a landing net approx 20 x 20 x 24 with a fixed alumium pole of 6 plus feet. I plan to use it to pick up garbage floating in our canal

Answer: Hi There,

Answer: The two piece telecopic handle on this net can be fixed at full length. However the handle length is less than 6 feet.

Answer: It is 76” from the end of net to end of pole when it is full extended

Answer: It’s a telescoping ole but very sturdy. I would recommend for your application

Answer: So what is your question????

Answer: Was there a question here?

Is the large (24") net too heavy to use with one hand while rod is in other hand??

Answer: You can do it with one hand but it's difficult that's why I always have somebody in the boat to land the fish

Answer: No it is not too heavy.

Answer: No

Will the 20" depth accommodate landing a 24" to 36" Steelhead? I don't want a huge net in the boat.

Answer: I think that any fish more than about 24" in length would be a tight squeeze to get into this net. I do fine with trout and redfish in the 20-26" range. The net sides are essentially straight down and the net is about 12" deep. So it depends on how big your fish are likely to be. It is less than half the size of the net our guides carried when we were fly fishing for salmon in Michigan.

Answer: Hi Ajs,

Answer: The longest carp I landed was over 30” and 20 + lbs so I think it will serve your needs.

Answer: Yes, I routinely use this net to land big flathead, blue and channel catfish. It's very sturdy and should hold up well to those big steelhead. As another user has noted, the case is terrible but I always keep mine in a big bucket anyway. My favorite feature of this net is it's extreme sturdiness when fully extended. I usually fish in fast river currents so I need a reliable landing net.

Answer: Mine is fine for 24” rainbow but unsure about 36” steelhead

Answer: Yes it will. But, the case is terrible. The zipper broke twice. I returned it once but the second on broke too.

are there 2 models? I want the one that extends to 76 in.

Answer: Hi Paul,

What is the maximum weight capacity this net can hold while fully extended?

Answer: I've lifted my 35 lb. Toddler with the handle fully extended. Don't know what the max weight it can handle, but it's very sturdy.

Answer: I've landed a 40 lb flathead cat, with the handle fully extended, and it showed no signs of bending or breaking. Most sturdy net I've owned.

Answer: I haven’t tested it for maximum wt but I haven’t had any issues with fish in the 5 pound area. Great net!!!

Answer: Not sure. We have netted some really big fish.

Will this net handle Stripers 33"-40" and 17#-25#?

Answer: Hello,

Answer: Yes this net will easily handle big stripers no problem

Answer: No, it is not deep enough nor wide enough to handle that size of fish. hope this helps.

will this fit in a suitcase?

Answer: That would depend on the size of the suitcase. The smaller net is 20” long x 16” wide x 20” deep. The larger net is 24” long x 20” wide X 24” deep. The folded size for storage is either 27” long x 8” wide or 33” long x 10” wide and they weigh just 1.4 or 2 lbs.

Answer: The smaller version would fit in most suitcases and larger is slightly (6") longer. The dimensions (closed or stored) are either 27” long x 8” wide for the small or 33” long x 10” wide for the large net. They both store flat and are maybe 2" thick.

Answer: Yes

Is this suitable to land striped bass from rocky inlet?

Answer: Yes

I see the net material is rubber coated but what type of material is the netting itself? Is it nylon or fabric etc.

Answer: I'm going to guess fabric. Its rubber coated so fabric would adhere the best. Its a good net so far.

can you use this for catching baitfish?

Answer: This net is versatile and can surly catch bait fish. You do want to consider the size of bait fish vs the size of the holes.

Answer: I bought it to catch my rogue chickens.

Answer: Yes, you can if you're quick enough. Although I recommend hook and line over it.

Is there supposed to be a stoper to keep the pole from coming completely out?

Answer: Yes my pole does not come out. Been using all year now. Probley 50 fish in it. I have never had the pole come all the way out.

Answer: Yes there is a cap on end of pole to stop pole from coming out. It’s a screw in type and comes with pole. I’m thinking it’s for extension of the pole or attachment like lure retriever.

Answer: I agree. You can see it in the product photo if you use the zoom feature. I have not had either section of my net come disconnected.

Would this work for catching chickens?

Answer: It is a great net for water use because of the rubber coating on the net. It may be harmful on delicate feathers.

What is the diameter of the net mesh holes?

Answer: A little less than 1/2”

Obviously not big enough for a 30lb King Salmon?

Answer: That is a pretty safe assumption. I have used it for trout, bass, etc. Big game fish would require a bigger net.

Could this net hold up catching Blue Crabs?

Answer: It’s a pretty strong net I think it would but you will tear it up faster

Answer: Awesome net love it

Answer: I can’t really be sure, but if you’re down scraping the bottom most of the time I’m leaning towards saying no it wouldn’t hold up

Is this net knotless? I am in WA state and many of the waters are selective gear which specify that the net must be knotless.

Answer: It is rubber. No knots. And pretty big!!

Answer: It is knotless, the bottom is sewn in with a strip.

Answer: Yes. Its rubber.

I am trying to buy this for my husband for Christmas. He fishes for steelhead and salmon. Is this a good net for that and which size should i get?

Answer: I think this net would work for your application. These nets are really clever and well made. I specifically wanted a net that folded up to use in my boat. Works like a charm. I would recommend that the largest size would be best for salmon and steelhead.

Answer: This is the smaller one which I thought was to small in photo. Turned out perfect. Nice extension and net. I’d say 15-20 lbs you would be able to. 20lbs or more the bigger net probably the way to go.

Answer: It will work good for your husband. Its light weight and durable and big enough also. I would recommend the biggest size for salmon and steelhead. Especially for the price its a great net.

Answer: Get the large size. I use it for salmon too, although I wish it was a bit bigger. It’s portability is a feature that’s hard to beat.

Which size is this listing for?! Large or Medium?

Answer: Medium....but plenty big. Quality product and am quite pleased

Answer: You would typically make your selection from the drop down menu. At this time the larger net is sold out, so only the 20" is offered.

Is this 20" net have a handle that extends or not, pic says it doesn't but drawing shows it does, can u please let me know ? Thanks in advanced

Answer: On the net I got the handle collapses into the net frame making the net much shorter for packing. The handle will then extend out of the net. So collapsed the net is about 27.5" long and extended it is about 45.5" total length. The handle itself does not "telescope" into itself or extend to make the handle longer. The handle is a a fixed length.

Answer: Yes, the handle extends 50 inches and twists for a secure "lock". From the very front of the net to the tip of the handle fully extended is 67 inches.

Answer: Yes...It does extend.

Answer: It extends

Answer: Yes, it extends

what's the difference between the fixed and telescopic handles if they both fold/collapse?

Answer: I would think with the fixed handle net the handle doesn’t collapse into the net but the net folds?

20" net handle is set ? and does not extend? if so what is the length shortest to longest while extended. ?

Answer: The smallest net is 20” long x 16” wide and 20” deep with a handle that extends to a full 45” long.

For the 24 inch hoop net, can the 2nd piece of the handle be extended partially only or does it have to be fully extended to lock it down?

Answer: It doesn't have to be fully extended , pull it out as far as you need and tighten the lock ring ... Great net , Salmon up to 30lbs were no problem ....

Answer: It can be partially extended and locked down.

Could this handle a 40" Northern Pike?

Answer: The dimensions of the larger net are: 24” long x 20” wide X 24” deep. It is reinforced and should be fine to catch larger fish.

Answer: I think so , I’ve landed 44” redfish with it . I live in Louisiana , and using it fishing seams to be holding up to the brackish water we have . I do like that it extends out also .

What is the Warranty?

Answer: Amazon replaced it once.

What what is the overall extended length length from the end of the handle to the end of the net.

Answer: 5 feet. It’s a nice net and design

Answer: 60 inches. Definitely long enough

Answer: 6 feet

Do you get both nets?

Answer: No, you only get one net. This depicts the various positions of the telescoping handle. This is a great net, no bones about it. Buy one!

Answer: You purchase the net of your choice. The photo shows two nets but each is separate option.

Answer: One net

Answer: No. I believe the illustration is show the size differences.

Can this net carry heavy fish like carp?

Answer: Yes, this net can handle large fish, we have different sizes to choose from.

Answer: Any fish that you can get into the net, it will hold securely, but chose the size net for the size of fish you expect to catch.

Answer: yes

Can this net be used to catch minnows? Or collecting smaller fish in streams?

Answer: The net should work fine on small fish down to a couple inches and on fish that I have caught that were 20". I can't remember but I think the net "holes" are about 1/4" or so. I only wish the handle was a little bit longer for boat use so I could reach out a little farther.

Answer: This is a really nice net. Well made and easy storing but I don’t think it would work for minnows.

Answer: No

Does it float?

Answer: Hi there,

Answer: No.

is this the large verzion or smaller one ?

Answer: The smaller net is 20” long x 16” wide x 20” deep.

Answer: Large

Answer: The smaller one is pictured on the right.

Answer: The one I had purchased was the small landing net.

When will you have the large telescopic one with the 24in net?

I would use it for surf fishing, standing waist deep. Can the net be used without extending the handle?

Answer: Hi Toh,

Answer: You should, when you move the handle into place it clears the net opening

Answer: Yes

How do you keep the shaft from rotating so that the measuring metrics are always on top?

Answer: Hi there,

Answer: You could extend the larger first section and tighten the twist lock with the numbers are up. Although it still might turn. I find extending the smaller handle section isn’t really needed.

Would this work to catch bats inside the house? Awwwwkkkk

Answer: Yes

Can this be used in salt water without corrosion?

Answer: yes. This net is great for salt or freshwater. It has an Aluminum Handle & Net Frame, as well as graphite components so it will not corrode.

Product reviews of KastKing Fishing Net Folding Landing Net – Super Strong, Easy to Carry Store,as Strong as Heavy Duty One-Piece Landing Net…

RSS : Nice net for boat or high shore

This is a big net, but folds down to a tennis racket size for easy storage on my small fishing boat. I like the coated netting that eliminates hook tangles when landing fish. I also like the telescoping extension, which I use when fishing off large rock in one of my secret honey holes. O.K., for improvements, I drilled a hole on the end of the handle and added a para-cord wrist strap for safety since it doesn't float. Would be nice if they added a stop on the end of the handle to keep your hand slipping off. When I'm netting with the pole extended, I do it hand over hand. The net is just deep enough to fold over the net hoop to "lock" the fish in, however if the net were a tad deeper it would be a better net. All-in-all I'm pleased with the net and recommend it. It's getting the job done.

Mike Clinton : Feels like quality!

I've this net. I might of went to big for my needs. The smaller size would probably of been fine. But I love how strong this feels. Beats nets not that are not colasible. The case is weak, zipper broke before I got it out on the water but I didn't buy it for the case.

EM : Exactly What I Wanted

I just received the larger net and am not surprised with the quality with which it is built. Kastking does a great job at offering quality equipment at affordable pricing. I'm an avid bank fisherman and plan to use the 24" deep net for landing pike. The storage bag that comes with the net is a nice feature. I fish a lot and will be back to update this review in the future after I've used the net for a few months.

Brook : Made with cheap plastic

I had high hopes because of all the reviews.
The net itself is great quality, the rest, not so much. The foldable frame is really cool. I wish normal nets were made like this.
The frame and handle are made out of cheap plastic. I can hear it cracking when I open, close and tighten the handle. I’ll be lucky to get 1 or 2 seasons out of this net.

EM : Exactly What I Wanted

Dieter Voigt : A nice compact net!

It’s a nice size net that folds very compactly. Would make a great shore fishing net or one for a trip to Canada. There is a lot of plastic on this net making its durability questionable - especially the plastic hinges on the hoop, but overall a nice net with decent length for a great price.

chmwash : Handle will fall off

The handle will pull completely out of the hoop making it useless. I managed to put it back in but lost the fish. It should have something on the end of the handle to prevent it from coming all the way out. Purchased in December 2019. Used it a handful of times. I like the net otherwise, just disappointed because of handle.

_Michael_99 : Big Net, Compact storage, Long reach

I love this thing!! Super compact for the size of net you get. Great ideas on the ruler in the handle. You can size the fish inside the net in THE WATER! That's the best thing for the fish. Rubber net looks good. Wish the net was a tick thicker with less holes but for the price this is Best Buy scenario. Even if it brakes or I lose it I'm not out a hundred or more $$$ if it happens.

MAL : Don’t let the price fool you..

I was skeptical about this net simply because of the price it is being offered at. Upon receiving the net i was pleasantly surprised at how well it seems to be built. The net is also plenty deep to handle almost any game fish. I fish more than the average person so if this net does not hold up to my standards i will return with a follow up review. For now I am pleased and look forward to testing it on some big walleyes this upcoming weekend.

bounmy saelee : KastKing Fishing Net Folding Landing Net

this is great item i love it the minute i open the box and see the item...first time use on the water its amazing i recommend to everyone try it, i will buy another one soon. thanks

DH Walters : Great Net, FANTASTIC Customer Service

This net is strong, big and long. Perfect for big Stripers and Fluke. Also ideal for removing flotsam and jetsam (we hate those Mylar balloons = turtle killers). Had an issue with our net after warranty ran out. KastKing could not have been more helpful. They responded quickly to my emails and we sorted the issue in a more than fair manner. I’ve been buying more things from this great company. Line, sunglasses, etc. Will cont to support KastKing. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Dave Kline : Lost on first trip. Does not float!

Beware! This net does not float. It fell out of my kayak on the very first fishing outing and that was that. $50 bucks down the drain. Use caution when buying. I thought this net was a floating model. Very unpleasant and expensive surprise.

Robert W Quates JR : KastKing Fishing Net Folding Landing Net

haven't landed a big one yet but well built and I like the broke down and storage bag!

bsufan82642 : Not great

This net will fold but after use in saltwater it is very hard to fold and unfold. Net mesh gets easily tangled in hooks and I have had to cut hooks out.

OneUpTwoDown : Solid net with good features.

Netting seems durable and tangle resistant. Pole is sturdy for the length. All around good net. My only issue is the way you extend the pole. Feels wonky and I’m never sure if I’m twisting the pole enough to open/close. A way to improve would be to add a tactile click or some other indication that the pole is ready to be pulled out or pushed in.

Robert W Quates JR : KastKing Fishing Net Folding Landing Net

haven't landed a big one yet but well built and I like the broke down and storage bag!

B.Craighead : Great present for a fisherman

My dad loves it! It was a great present first fisherman. He has a regular size boat but now he can always have a net folded in a compartment. Only issue there was is that the case lost its zipper the first day I gave it to him.

Nicole : Great net. Poor bag

I like to keep my things organized and easy to get to when I’m on my boat. And when I’m loading and packing up to get back in the road, I also like to be quick and efficient. This net allows me to do just that with one major drawback only: A TERRIBLE BAG.

I unzipped the bag once to take the net out and the zipper pretty much disintegrated. Now the net is just loose in one of my storage compartments and it snags whatever it comes in contact with.

Great net, it really is, but the storage bag needs work. A better zipper would solve this all.

Adam : Undecided. Not for big fish.

I love the compact nature of this net but I question its ability to land big fish. I put 10 lbs of weight in it and when the net is fully extended, there was quite a bit of flex. The locking mechanism for the folding feature of the net is just cheap plastic which will likely not last very long. I am looking for a net that will last me a long time and I don’t think this is it.

Brian W L : and most components are pretty solid. The locking mechanism of the lip of ...

Overall a very well made net. The handle, rubber mesh of the basket, and most components are pretty solid. The locking mechanism of the lip of the net isn’t very responsive, so it’s hard to tell if it is actually locked into place, even though with my little experience using it it seems to lock securely. Improving the latch quality would greatly enhance overall quality. Perhaps an aluminum or stainless steel mechanism instead of plastic? But for the price, like most Kastking products, you can’t really go wrong.

bsufan82642 : Not great

This net will fold but after use in saltwater it is very hard to fold and unfold. Net mesh gets easily tangled in hooks and I have had to cut hooks out.

bounmy saelee : KastKing Fishing Net Folding Landing Net

this is great item i love it the minute i open the box and see the item...first time use on the water its amazing i recommend to everyone try it, i will buy another one soon. thanks

kefamily5 : Great net?

This net is great and can handle big fish but is still very compact and portable. Nice to have the measuring scale right on the handle. The only drawback I would say is that after some use it gets a little hard unscrew and extend and retract handle.

DH Walters : Great Net, FANTASTIC Customer Service

EM : Exactly What I Wanted

Tony : Durability Questioned / Broke on first use.

First time out with this net and it broke and the handle is loose. The cap at the end of the pole (on the net side) popped off and will not screw in. It is a plastic piece. The handle on the user-end is loose. Came home from fishing and puit request for return. I like the "foldability" and size but have zero confidence in the net after the first use. Frabill net as a replacement ordered.

C Wiley : Quality net

I'm a fishing guide who uses small crafts to navigate rivers and put people on fish. Space is an issue but a good large net is needed for some of the large pike we target. I have seen nets of this style for way more money and with out the telescoping feature. For the price tag this net seems like it will be hard to beat. Opens easily as well at telescopes easily and seems very sturdy. Doesn't take up much room once it is broken down. Many collapsible nets forgo the rigid front part of the net and say it easier to slide the net under the fish, i have had one of those styles and you really want a net like this one that has an entire rigid opening for better net control when getting it under the fish. I look forward to seeing how this net holds up to a long season on the water. I'll update my review if i find any flaws.

Robert W Quates JR : KastKing Fishing Net Folding Landing Net

haven't landed a big one yet but well built and I like the broke down and storage bag!

RickyN29 : I'm impressed!

I somewhat thought this would be cheap and flimsy but I must say I am impressed! Nice giant net with long pole that collapses down to a very small size. I have used it on my trips and so far and it has been working great!

Amazon Customer : HORRIBLE!!

I bought this net for the 2020 late run of Sockeye on the Kenai River. The net did not last 3 days before the pole bent and 6 days into the trip the top hinge broke. It looks cool, but it is absolutely worthless piece of sh!t. I would not recommend this net to my worse enemy. Please save your money and buy a better quality net.

Dave Kline : Lost on first trip. Does not float!

Tinka : It'll net'em

The extended handle on this is great. Works really well when netting big cats from the docks. The rubbered netting keeps my tackle from getting tangled up in it real bad. So far we've netted only a few 10+ pound catfish with it, but I could easily see netting a 30pounder with it. Only complaint is that it's a bitch to fold the net back up.

Marty Gene : Best on the market!

Occasionally you buy an item that really lives up to the hype and this one really does, times 2! I’m fishing out of a pontoon and dipping a large fish proves tricky at best, but not with this adjustable handle dip net. The net itself is actually quite large, where some would call it overkill-I prefer the term “potential”. We also do a lot of touring and water sports with this tritoon, so the collapsible feature allows me to store it under the seat in it’s handy dandy vinyl storage case. Love this dip net! Can’t wait to catch a fish and try it out

Tinka : It'll net'em

Joel Alonso : Good, except the telescope handle.

As long as you don’t try to use the telescoping part of the handle you will do fine!

Eric Wiaderny : Madbite compact net

Just recently I noticed that my old fishing net had a hol while I was at my first kayak bass tournament and needed a new one. Checked out KastKing’s product and notice that they release a fishing net just at the right time when I was looking to get a new one. I really love how compact this net is and folds in half for easy storage in my kayak or in my truck. It’s got a nice cover when your not using the net to keep it preserved in good condition when on the road. With them tossing a measurement is a nice bonus especially when I do kayak bass tournament I can use that to see if I can upgrade a fish size faster then unfolding my measure board behind me.
The never is highly quality.

I highly recommend getting this net especially the price for it is great and I love mine. Excited to use it for my next tournament.

duncan koch : Huge Net!

This net is huge! 6 pound bowfin barely fills it. But this is a very solid colapseable extendable net. My first one had an issue with the glue on the collar holding the extendable handle almost immediately. It was replaced quickly without issue and I've had zero problems with this one. Hence the lil loss in sturdiness.

basswalker3 : Good net

Got this for my husband after his last net tore. He says it works better than his original net so all is well!

Adam : Undecided. Not for big fish.

S. Davis : Real solid net for the money

This was the third net I tried from Amazon. The hoop part is about 24 inches long, and its fits pretty well in the gunnel holder on my Bass Cat Caracal. The extend and lock in operation is easy to do, its got a stopper at the end of the bar (unlike one of the other ones I tried). Its a solid bass tournament net, great size. Strong value for the $$ net

Amazon Customer : Well built and sturdy, folds up small.

Durable construction including die cast folding mechanism in net. Folds up small enough to stow in boat, but expands to nice size for landing good size lake fish. Nice to have nylon bag for stowing, prevents net from getting snagged.

Joel Alonso : Good, except the telescope handle.

As long as you don’t try to use the telescoping part of the handle you will do fine!

T : Very nice net. Folds up for easy transport.

I finally got a chance to use this thing while fishing. It's great. Landed a 5 lb red fish with no problems. Extends and folds up easily. Seems very well built so I hope it will last me years. The zippered case probably won't last long. It's very thin and has to be almost stretched to get the net in and out. It looks like it needs to be about a half inch wider to allow easier removal. The holes in the net are a bit too big for minnows, but perfect for bait fish and anything larger. Ended up catching a hummingbird that got stuck in my garage the other day. It worked perfectly for that as well. Will purchase again if ever needed.

Dieter Voigt : A nice compact net!

Fernando : Great travel net

This net collapses and extends great. Very sturdy to hold fish in the net. The switch broke but that was my fault as i forced it closed without knowing it was locked. Overall it is a great collapsible net.

jay : Handle is worthless..

This net lasted about 2 months and then the handle came apart. I Have bought 3 different nets with extendable handles and all 3 extendable handles failed. I will never buy another net with an extendable handle again period.

Dieter Voigt : A nice compact net!

Tamara : PERFECT FOR REDFISH, PIKE, SALMON AND LAKE TROUT

This thing is perfect! I wanted something to take to the Jettys for Bull reds and such. It's perfect. Sure the reds can be way bigger than the net but this will bring em home. It's nice and deep, decent width and easy to open and close. Extremely light for carying and collapses great. As long as it keeps holding up and doesnt break, it's the perfect net for a boat or shore. I've lived in Washington fishing Salmon, Minnesota fishing Northern Pike and Walleye and Utah for Lake Trout. Now in Texas fishing Reds and whatever else will bite..Its not a monster size net but this is exactly what I wanted. Light, easy to carry, very deep and a couple feet wide. Yes there are more heavy duty and larger nets, but for carying into places and wanting as little weight as possible but big enough to do the job, this is better than I expected. Thank goodness. I didnt realize the handle has a measure tape on it as well.

Tyler Larsen : Perfect kayak net!

PERFECT net for kayak fishing. Folds up and can be stored anywhere, long enough handle to provide leverage and rubbery mesh to avoid tangles/ hook!

Chris McVey : If you're in the market for a net, look no further

This net is a HUGE upgrade to the Madbite nets that were previously available. The hoop size is wider and deeper and the handle is very powerful and convenient. Received my new KastKing/MadBite net yesterday and it got a lot of use already. Sturdy, elegant yet compact and strong. Oh, and it's conservation friendly and it won't twist and tangle when fish want to thrash about.
