Questions about EGO S1 Genesis Floating Fishing Net, Fishermen’s Tool, Salt & Freshwater, Non-Slip Grip, Compact Storage, Lightweight, 30+ Attachments, Warranty

Where can I get a replacement rubber net.. had a fish rip through it. Otherwise love this net!

Answer: From EGO

The option for the clear rubber mesh what size is it? handle length and net size

Answer: 21"-perfect size to carry in my kayak. I have had mine for several years now and holding up well. Have netted 30+ inch redfish with it, tail hanging over obviously, but still able to manage it. I drilled a hole in the handle end and put a parachute cord loop to keep it secure as things tend to fall out of kayaks from time-to-time. Was kind of hard to thread through but worked out quite well.

Answer: This is the 13" Handle, all models here are.

Answer: how long is the handle

On the Evo nets are the handles made of metal or plastic?

Answer: They have a metal handle with rubber cover/end cap and typical plastic center piece with SS hardware, but very-very well made. I use this one in my kayak, it floats but I nevertheless drilled a hole in the very end to put a permanent lanyard on it lest I lose it like so many things that can fall off a small fishing kayak. I love the thing and thinking about buying a larger one for my flats boat. regards steve

Answer: plastic

Does this net have a removble handle?

Answer: Yes the handle screws off

Answer: Yes, it is 2 pieces

What does the size refer to? Is the 18" net 18" in scoop diameter or is the handle 18" long? Please explain sizes.

Answer: I think it refers to the scoop diameter. The handle is much larger than 18".

Will this net do well with landing 40+ inch muskie?

Answer: Approximately 1" square.

What is the maximum weight capacity of this net? Would I have any problem landing up to 60 lb catfish?

Answer: I don't know if a maximum limit has been listed but I think that as long as you weren't lifting 60lbs by the very ends of the handle you'd be OK. The net itself would hold it and the handle would. ..the weak link is where the handle and net attach to each other

Answer: Works great, just collapse the handle before lifting out of the water to the boat. The further the extension the less weight it can lift straight up. It's easy though once the fish is netted just slide it closed and lift.

Answer: 60lbs would be fine.

How much weight can this net hold? Will it survive large walleye? I’m looking for one to take on a Canada trip but also use in a kayak.

Product reviews of EGO S1 Genesis Floating Fishing Net, Fishermen’s Tool, Salt & Freshwater, Non-Slip Grip, Compact Storage, Lightweight, 30+ Attachments, Warranty

CaG Hal : Two Stars

Too big and too heavy.

Keri D. : inaccurate product description

The description is not accurate. The description states that the net is RUBBER-COATED but it is not.

David Thompson : Great Net!

Love the removable handle! Perfect for my kayak and bass.

D. Rossler : Fantastic net! It's been a great upgrade for my ...

Fantastic net! It's been a great upgrade for my shore fishing and small boat fishing. Love the rubber netting. Easy reach with the long handle, and the rubber netting is great while using treble hooks.

Andrew martinez jr. : Handle to hoop connection

Strong handle not sure about the connection to net hoop it's plastic time will tell. Opening big net deep. Just the joint with handle to hoop

Karen Johnson : Bent Handle. Intentional?

Landing net appears to be well made, haven't used it yet, but it came with a bent handle. When the handle is screwed tightly onto the net frame the net is bent downward about 15 degrees and it appears the bend might be intentional but the images on the website show a straight handle and nothing that came with the net seems to indicate that there should be a bend. I don't think I'm going to send it back because it appears to be perfectly useful but I'm curious. Anybody else get one with a bent handle?

Bob : Good Net but

I fly fish from an 8 ft pram and have limited space for my oars, gear, and net. However, I need a net with a long enough handle to net fish from my seat. This net is great. Not too big, the handle is long enough for netting fish but not so long it is hard to show in my boat. The rubber netting is great for catch and release of fish. This net works great for me in my small boat.

Update
Beware. The "floating" properties of this net is questionable. Yes it floats for about 1 to 2 minutes, but then it sinks fast. I lost my net to the bottom of the lake. I recommend to add a float to the handle of this net!

P. Carlton : Five Stars

Perfect for catching chickens!!

rxt : Nice Compact Fishing Net

Well built net. Wish the handle was a bit smaller, but looks like great quality. Can not wait to use it to net the big one.

T. Muise : We use it for chickens and turkeys!

We don't use it as intended. We catch adult chickens and turkeys. It's held up extremely well!

Richard Genzlinger Jr : Perfect net

I use this while kayak fishing and it's awesome. The netting is rubber instead of string and allows easy fish removal without getting caught in the gills or fins.

CaG Hal : Too big and too heavy.

Too big and too heavy. Otherwise good.

D. Rossler : Fantastic net! It's been a great upgrade for my ...

bill doolen : Great net.

It's larger than a standard fly fishing net, which is what I wanted. It's a little heavy. My magnet doesn't hold it very well. I like the removable handle. Overall I would but the same net. It's well built and reasonably priced.

bill doolen : Great net.

CaG Hal : Two Stars

Too big and too heavy.

Wes : Expensive but worth it.

It does it’s job. For an expensive net I’m satisfied. Then again you should be for the price. It does float though, which is great.

Zuko : Works for me!!

This net works great! The webbing does not snag hooks. It does float but the hoop will dip below the surface. It handles up to 24" trout easily and won't harm the fish. The handle is long enough to net fish in my bass boat easily. I love this net, it's perfect for catch and release fly fishing from a boat.

Ron A. : thumbs up

Great product, love the rubber net so I never have to worry again about having a hook get stuck. I gave 4 stars due to the fact the hand grip near the net is quite large. I believe they could design a slightly smaller handle grip. Otherwise I Highly recommend this product.

Joshua : Perfect kayak net

Looked on and off for 2 summers for the perfect net. I do a lot of trout fishing and catch and release fishing so I wanted a rubber net that would protect the fishes natural slime.
Also wanted a clear net to help not spook the fish while netting them.
I also do some walleye fishing from my kayak so I needed a net that would be big enough for an occasional walleye.
My next net had to float since I'm using it in a kayak and could easily be nocked overboard. This net checked all the boxes in what I was looking for. At first I wasn't crazy about the length of the handle but after landing a few walleyes im glad it was as long as it is because I was fully extended with my arm netting them.

aldeureaux : Good Net and Good Value

Very nice net and good value for the money. Well made.

Max L. : Good net does what I need

This is a good net. The basket is soft which is good for fish, and the handle is long enough to reach salmon and steelhead when they’re going berserk at the bank. Plus it floats.

Sister Mary Winifred : Great help with domestic ducks and chickens

I used this net when I had to divide my flock of chickens and ducks - it was easy to use, fine for large Pekin ducks and roosters. Birds were caught and moved with no problems at all.

Lynn B. : Holey Mackerel

A picture is worth a thousand words!! Needless say he loves this new net.
Seriously, it’s easy to handle and it floats.

Andrew martinez jr. : Handle to hoop connection

Strong handle not sure about the connection to net hoop it's plastic time will tell. Opening big net deep. Just the joint with handle to hoop

Max : Quality

Love it. Just as expected.

Bob Gee : Great Net for Inshore Fishing

I like everything about this net. It’s sturdy, well built and the rubber net bag doesn’t bang up the fish I want to release. It’s easy to stow because the shaft unscrews from the net frame. It’s the right size for fishing for reds and sea trout from a flats boat.

RCRVNV : Can use it short or long handle

Nice ne,t use it for flounder fishing.

Ray : Great net !

Love the size of this net and it’s made VERY durable !!!

Lynn B. : Holey Mackerel

A picture is worth a thousand words!! Needless say he loves this new net.
Seriously, it’s easy to handle and it floats.

Andrew martinez jr. : Handle to hoop connection

Strong handle not sure about the connection to net hoop it's plastic time will tell. Opening big net deep. Just the joint with handle to hoop

Bob : Good Net but

Amazon Customer : Great net

Got this net to replace my current "hook resistant" rubberized nylon net. 100% glad I did. The basket is a bit larger than most and the handle is a bit longer than my last one but it's nothing I can't live with. I was always cutting my lures/hooks out of my old net but not so with this one. Have landed some nice bass and catfish without any problems, the net is strong and the ability to float is a plus...hehe don't ask how I know.

Zuko : Works for me!!

Andrew Wilson : Excellent Net

An excellent fishing net, a little on the heavy side but did not interfere with landing a fish. No tangles of hooks with ease of landing and removing the fish. Plus it floats, so when the small kids drop it overboard, it is retrieved!
However, it is overpriced and would only purchase it when on sale, etc.

Richard Genzlinger Jr : Perfect net

I use this while kayak fishing and it's awesome. The netting is rubber instead of string and allows easy fish removal without getting caught in the gills or fins.

Robert E : Good fishing net

Works perfectly for 22-24” walleye. Removable handle still is sturdy. Just right size. Just what was needed.

Snorkel : Awesome net, hook resistant.

Awesome with treble hooks, very resistant to hooks. My old small hole net was a nightmare, 5 minutes sometimes getting the hooks out, not with this one!!!

Check out in use at bassmanstrikes.com

Brian Swingle : Five Stars

Perfect size net for my kayak.

E. Whitney : LOVE IT !

LOVE IT !! Have not lost as many salmon when trying to net them. the shape and curved up end is perfect.

Cindy : Five Stars

Great quality!

Rodney Phillips : Love it

Great net

Keith M. : Four Stars

Fast getting here and very nice product

Get@itOutdoors : Get@itOutdoors YouTube

Great deal for the price

David B. : Five Stars

bought this for my wife... she loves how it feels in her hands... Can hardly wait to use it

Jim H. : DESCRIPTION MISLEADING

WHY DID THE WEB PAGE SHOW THE NET HAD AN EXTENDABLE HANDLE IF IT WASN'T EXTENDABLE??? I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT I WAS BUYING A NET WITH AN EXTENDABLE HANDLE, SO I WAS DISSAPOINTED WHEN I RECEIVED THE NET AND IT WAS JUST A 36" ONE PIECE HANDLE. DID I MISS SOMETHING WHEN I ORDER THE NET?

Amazon Customer : No handle

Love this product I would have gave it five stars but mine did not come with a handle and I was under the impression it was supposed to come with a handle thankfully I already had a collapsible handle that I was buying this for

Nancy Ullsperger : Twin Nephews Love this Net!

Purchased for my two twin nephews in Atlanta, GA. so that they can fish off of the dock at their cottage and they love the net, Thanks much...it is perfect for them!

James B. : Exactly As described

I love the net the price is awesome have not used it yet

Amazon Customer : Dose fit my hands well and stores easily.

Used this as a holder for individual bags of chips at a child's birthday party. "Fish n chips". Expect it to work very well on my 14' boat. Might regret not having an adjustable length handle. Dose fit my hands well and stores easily.
