Frabill Hiber-Net | Collapsible Landing Net for Freshwater Fishing | Fish-Friendly Netting | Hoop Size: 23" x 22"

Needed a compact solution for fishing with my two kids as magically there's never enough room in the boat. Definitely tougher to retract when the net is dry, but once it's wet from netting a fish, works great.

Fantastic net second one I've owned first one ended up in the lake (poor netting partner) easily stowed at the end of the day dries really fast too

This was a purchase for mu husband - he loves it.It stores away so easily and works great.

Overall this is a great net. It has its pluses and minuses but I really like it.What I like: It saves space. I can sore this in my rod locker on my bass boat and it takes up basically no space. The days of dealing with a giant net on the deck of my boat are over. There are folding nets that I can put in my rod locker but the net is exposed and they get tangled on baits still attached to my rods. The net on the Hiber Net tucks safely away into the handle were it can't get tangled. Also, it is quick to deploy.What I don't like: It does not have a rubber tangle free net. It is a cloth/nylon type net that will snag your hooks every time you land a fish. There is also the possibility of it getting stuck while opening or closing the net but I have not experienced this yet.For me this net is great and I'm really satisfied with it. I definitely recommend it to others.

If I could give it zero stars, I would. This was going to my second Frabill Hibernet. The first one held up well, though it went with the boat when I sold it many years ago. The genius part of the product is the net stores inside the handle. The fist one was a bit difficult to deploy, though over time it did get better. It does take two hands. This one when arrived today, I noticed the Made in Taiwan sticker on it. I opened it exactly twice while in the garage. It was quite difficult to open, though the I figured it would get easier. I then had my wife try to deploy the net. She was unable to physically open it. She handed it to me and I opened it up and the entire assembly came out along with a part that I still don’t know where it came from which fell to the ground. I called Frabill which is a Plano company. I sat on hold for 30 minutes. I gave up, but did was able to get a return phone call from Frabill. I explained my situation and the representative could care less. In fact, the entire phone call lasted 29 seconds. Needless to say, this thing is going back to Amazon and I will not be purchasing another thing from Frabill and it is doubtful I will be purchasing any additional Plano products as well. Buyer be ware.
