Questions about EGO S2 Slider Fishing Net, Ultimate Fishermen’s Tool, Telescoping Handle, Replaceable Head, Salt & Freshwater, 2 Year Warranty, 48-108" Handle

How large is the mesh? I need something water will flow through easily to reduce resistance when netting a fish at trolling speed.

Answer: I have the standard net and use it at trolling speed with no issues. The thicker catch /release material might be different.

Answer: The mesh is approximately 1.25" square. Only thing negative about the net is if using treble hooks they get stuck in the mesh.

Answer: The mesh is approximately 1.25" square. Only thing negative about the net is if using treble hooks the get stuck in the mesh.

My net doesn't secure tightly to the pole and unthreads during use. How do i secure it?

Answer: If it comes loose after tightening with your hands, I would get plumbers tape and wrap the threads with the tape. Plumbers tape comes on a spool and is made of thin plastic. It is not sticky and could easily be removed. If this does not work , I would buy some type of clear sealant like you use for boating applications and let it cure according to instructions. You may not be able to unscrew the net after doing this.

Answer: Never had same problem.....you might want to bring net in ac to chill down before attaching.....you might want to call company’s service dept.....easy to deal with.

Answer: Teflon tape the thread

Does this net come with the handle? Does it float?

Answer: I ordered this 3 different times and returned all 3, the description says it comes with a handle, but it never came.

Answer: Yes comes with handle, they say they float but I haven’t tested it.

Answer: Yes, but it broke trying to land a 35 lb Red Bass.

can this net float??

Answer: It's supposed to, although I have not tested that. It's a very popular net where I fish. Almost every boat has one on board .

Answer: Yes it will float

Answer: Yes it does

Just got my pole but no net. Is it shipped separately?

Answer: We do occasionally ship them separately. The handle should go in a tube or a longer box and the net in another box.

we did not receive the handle does it come separately?

Answer: I ordered two of these and returned BOTH. What a pain in the butt. How can you send two nets WITHOUT a handle???????????????????????????????????????????????????

Answer: Handle comes with net.....

Answer: No extendable handle comes with net

Answer: I got the handle with mine.

Answer: I am missing the handle too. Received just the net

Answer: Mine was in the same box.

Just got my pole but no net. Is it shipped separately?

Answer: We do occasionally ship them separately. The handle should go in a tube or a longer box and the net in another box.

What is length of handle ?

Answer: The handle is 48" long when collapsed and 108" long when extended, just like the listing says.

Answer: Don't know exactly but has 3 different lengths I think it's about 4 ft. Then extends out to 5 then 6ft. Is very good not. Easy to get fish out and eady to extend and retractm

Does the extension length include the net or is it just for just the handle?

Answer: The handle aka slider and the net are two separate items. You have to buy each one separately. You can buy the handle and then buy any size net you like to attach to the handle or you can buy the gaff to attach to the handle. The net screws on so it's completely removable after a day of fishing to fit in your car.

Answer: Length does not include the net, handle alone reaches that far!!!

Answer: Pretty sure it is for the handle. I'll say from experience that it's plenty of extra length, I don't go out to max extension, not enough control.

What is the maximum weight capacity fully extended ?

Answer: Ego states the capacities are:

What is the depth of the net?

Answer: It depends on the net head you select. I have the Ego Larger - Deep Rubber Net Head, and it is approximately 24" deep. If you selected a net with a different head I can't say for sure how deep they are. I have a friend who has the Large Rubber Net Head, and it is around 12"-14" deep if I remember correctly.

Answer: There are at least six different nets available. The depth of the net depends on which net you choose.

Answer: The mesh bag depth on this net is 20 inches.

Answer: Somewhere around 14 to 16 inches

Answer: 21" it works good for walleye an pike.

I see these are out of stock. Any idea when they will be available again?

Answer: They are available again now.

What are the hoop's dimensions and the net's depth?

Answer: Bag Depth: 24” with flat bottom (Stretches up to 1.5X with load)

On 12/22/20 you said they were in stock again. Why hasn't our order shipped yet?

Answer: Yes, but broke trying to land a 40 lb Red Fish....would not buy again.

Answer: The mesh is approximately 1.25" square. Only thing negative about the net is if using treble hooks the get stuck in the mesh.

How deep is rubber mesh net?

Answer: From memory, the standard Rubber Mesh head depth is around 12"-14" deep. The Deep Rubber Mesh head is 24" deep.

Is this the newer heavy built model that can hold more weight when fully extended?

Answer: I don't believe so, the only thing they did was make the threaded part where the net screws on a little stronger.

Answer: I don't think so, we use it for kokeene and trout just for the length. Sorry don't really know for bigger fish.

What is the size of the hop?

Product reviews of EGO S2 Slider Fishing Net, Ultimate Fishermen’s Tool, Telescoping Handle, Replaceable Head, Salt & Freshwater, 2 Year Warranty, 48-108" Handle

EVOSLAYER : Telescoping net.

A telescoping net! What will they think of next? The coolest net ever made and well worth the money. I use 16’ trolling poles and this net is a must.

jim osgood : long handle to long

handle is to long and heavy needs 68 in handle

Erika : Came without handle

Order it because needed it ASAP but the net came without the handle. Will be returning it.

R. Stephens : Fits my boat net needs perfectly

Smoothest extension net ever made. Great product. I use it for kokanee salmon that like to go crazy when you get them near the boat. And with their soft mouths, they often tear loose from your hook at the last second. Having the Ego Reach means I can slip a net on them before they get in close and lose their minds. Perfect for my needs and rugged enough to stand up to banging around a boat.

Michael J. Winter : Nice net, but the packaging needs work.

I bought this net primarily for it's extended reach and the fact that it should not cause hooks to be embedded in the net material. I also put a thin film of silicone on the extended inner shaft mechanism and now it is silky smooth. The only issue I had was the poor packaging. It came in a big box with no other inside packaging or fill. The box was almost completely destroyed by the time it was delivered to me. Fortunately, I did not see any visible damage to the net. One last note, I also took white plumber's Teflon tape and wrapped the threads where the net screws onto the handle. Now, it's really secure and won't twist. I primarily fish Lake Erie for walleye and a net like this will be handy.

Bigred : Nice

Nice size

charles b. rickerd : Nice net, but a little heavy

The net part did not screw into the handle with any degree of ease. I needed help from another person to get the threads started into the handle. Net threads were nylon and handle had metal threads and they did not want to go together. It took some force to accomplish. Aside from that, it extends and retracts well.

Dave M. : Has worked great for walleye so far

Has worked great for walleye so far. Treble hooks still get tangled in the mesh by going through the openings but they haven't penetrated the nylon strands like they did in my old net. Speed of extension deployment is amazing.

indymojo : The best. my second one

The best. my second one. I have smaller version for my flats boat and this very long pole/net is for my dock. Great item and one of the best made on the market. very strong.

Jane S Burgess : Ego S2 Slider net, a must have

Just got back from our first fishing trip with our new Ego S2 Slider net. It is an awesome net, slides easy, lightweight, and very little drag in the water. Even our 11 year old grandson was netting fish way out from the boat. Strongly recommend.

jim osgood : long handle to long

handle is to long and heavy needs 68 in handle

Bryon Rickard : Great telescoping net

Engineering is genius

Dave : Great net

Great for bigger fish sturdy

Barbara C. : Three Stars

Great net!

bobbyk : Did not show the shippers name so I gould call them on this order

When I ordered the fishing net the photo shows the net and the handle. That is not what I got it was the net only no handle. I had Amazon reorder it for in the photo it shows a net with the handle. I got the next order and it came with the net only again and on the wiping on the net it said one of two parts. Amazon said this time to send the orders back. If I did that I had to wait 4 to 6 weeks for my money. I went to another company and ordered a handle and had it in 5 days.

tom : WORST NET ON THE MARKET TODAY

REVISE TO THIS REVIEW I DROPPED IT FROM PERFECTION TO JUNK, YES LONG NET, HOWEVER VERY FLIMSY, PROBABLY STRONG ENOUGH? PART I WILL GIVE 0STARS TOO IS THAT IT IS A SCREW ON, YEAH NEVER HEARD OF THIS EITHER THAT IS GONNA GET LOOSE AND FALL OFF LIKE MINE DID, HAD TO RETURN. STICK WITH THE BEST ON THE MARKET, FRABILL OR NOTHING.

Heath : Must Have!!

This net is a must have if you are a serious crappie fisherman. The reach works great when you are spider rigging out the front with long poles or longlining out of the back of the boat. However, it would be difficult to use by your self. I fish with two people 95% of the time.

Barbara Q. : Five Stars

Item is great for trout, kokanee or smaller fish because it is long reach net.

SKnowles(firelady) : IT BROKE FIRST time using it

The product broke the first time i used it. It broke at the neck, where the net meets the pole.

James J. Prestidge : Five Stars

GREAT

Wendy : I have landed several trout up to 6 pounds easily. I net them

The handle is incredible. No effort at all to go from right at your boat to 9 feet out. Just slide the thing out and land that fish before it gets scared and tosses your hook. I have landed several trout up to 6 pounds easily. I net them, slide the handle back together to get them into the boat without anyone having to duck and toss them in the cooler. I did have a minor problem and customer service is outstanding. Problem solved. These guys are all about making you happy. The netting just sheds hooks and I can see this net being something I use the rest of my life. I honestly can not imagine any better design. Buy one and don't look back.

w#75 : Ego S2 19" dp rubber net

With the 9' reach on this bad boy loosing kokanee at the boat is practically a thing of the past. The deep rubber net eliminates tangles allowing you to get back on the fish quickly. The net is also deep enough to handle those incidental bass occasionlly hooked,.

Martha : Crappie

Awesome for Crappie fishing! Sturdy and durable think it will last for quite a few seasons, good deal as well.

Bigred : Nice

Nice size

Billy Bo : Three Stars

Too big for my usage

JEFF : There was no handle

Description stated that a handle would be included and it was not.

tony knust : Amazing All Species Net

Great product, great company. I love the rubber nets because I'm not wasting time untangling treble hooks. I hardly ever have to use the full reach but it's great to have it there when you need it. I can haul a huge largemouth out or reach out and get a rainbow trout before they do their death roll upon seeing the boat. Ego also sells a bunch of accessories for the handles. I find the boat hook most helpful it tight docking situations.

Melissa E. : One Star

Got the net...no handle!!

Forker : Great net

This is a super net, well designed and constructed, easy to use, perfect for what I bought it for.

VT Keith : Has issues but benifits outweigh the issues

Purchased net in May, had high expectations for it, it was great for the first 2 months until it went for a swim. Turns out the floating does not mean it floats. A quick call to Amazon to explain that the net was 200ft under a lake and a new one was sent. The new one imeditely he issues when extending it there was a grinding noise and it was way less smooth than the first. After 4 months of use it seized up 3/4 extended trying to boat a fish. Love the idea, and will buy again as even with its issues it is the best net concept out there.

spudman : Ego S2 Net

Very well made, great for drift boats. Over the last 4 years I have lost to nets overboard and they sank before I could get to them. This will not happen again with this one, because it floats. The net is rubber coated, opening large and deep, great for catch and release. I bought mine with the 48" handle that extends to over 100 inchs. very nice product

joe : Four Stars

just a little heavy

Douglas C. Lepper : Four Stars

A great mechanism for lengthening and shortening the handle as necessary. I wish it weighed a bit less though.

Melissa E. : One Star

Got the net...no handle!!

B Robbins : UPDATE: Might be great if you get what you order

Seems to be a trend with this product... Net delivered, no handle
Let's see if Amazon can get the handle delivered before the weekend fishing trip...
+ Amazon came through with the replacement in time for weekend.
- We tested the ability of the net to float while in the water with it. It did float... for maybe a minute at most, and then began to sink.
+ I do like the handle design. We'll see if it holds up.

Bottom line = Not sure if this is worth the extra $$$ over other nets. Was really buying for the floatation claims as we bought this to replace a previous net that made its way overboard and sank.

Michael J. Winter : Nice net, but the packaging needs work.

K.C. : Five Stars

sturdy, was as described

Austin Ridenour : Four Stars

Hoop was bent when arrived, probably more due to shipping

Jackie Smith : Essential

Love love love this net.
Works perfectly to get the fish in the boat.

Bradley C Peterson : And in this day and age it is impossible to get a problem like that resolved without just returning it

After much hesitation I decided to go with this net... When it arrived from Amazon, only the hoop was in the box... no handle. And in this day and age it is impossible to get a problem like that resolved without just returning it, so that is what I did. I have tried the slide handle feature on the S2 and the first time I closed it I pinched my finger... I think I will end up getting either a Ranger with the octagonal slide handle or a Beckman.

Ernest Davis jr : Four Stars

Seems like a well built product..however its much heavier than i expected

Ronald Phillips : Built good but a little heavy for one person to use while bring in a fish while extended.

I think it is well built and works well when bringing in fish at a long distance from the boat. I think that I ordered the longest model and I would recommend not ordering this model if you plan on using it with one hand while bringing in a fish because of the weight. You really need 2 hands to use this when you extend the handle very far.

Bradley C Peterson : And in this day and age it is impossible to get a problem like that resolved without just returning it

Glowell11 : no handle , twice in a row

looks like a great product , but very poor customer service , both nets came in beat up boxes with no handles

M. Goodrich : Slider net

Works great. My fishing friends liked it so much that they ordered one for themselves.It might seem a little pricey, but it is really worth the money.
