For example, net floats help lift heavy fish from the water. Your type of fishing net will depend on your fishing discipline and the species of fish you are targeting. All of our coarseand fly fishing nets tend to be small, spoon-shaped landing nets as you are targeting smaller species. Carpand Specimen anglers require larger, triangular nets with soft mesh to handle not only the weight of the fish but are delicate on the fish’s scales and protective slime. For predatorand sea anglers you need the toughest nets on the business as most of the fish you target have sharp teeth or spines that require some extra reinforcement in the mesh, net head and handles! Carp Fishing Nets - Defined by their long arms, wide gape, deep mesh, and long handle, a carp fishing net is usually triangular in shape to help land the fish. You will also find carp net arms as small as 36 inches for UK carp or a long as 50 inches that are ideal for European waters. Most manufacturers tend to use a hex-mesh pattern in carp nets which is often considered to be the softest mesh pattern available. Others use a wide mesh in the top of the net, allowing good water flow through, and denser mesh on the base, to better protect your carp. Carp nets tend to be fairly deep, as they are sometimes used for retaining carp in the water immediately after capture or prior to release. Most carp nets come with 6ft (or approximately 185cm) handles as it allows you to keep your rod tip high whilst you’re landing your capture.
