How are you keeping your nets out of the way, but handy?

Clips, magnets, I'm experimenting with everything again ........ I hate nets    

[Jeff Donovan]

For my night-time ventures with a sea trout net, it's the "D" ring at the rear of my wading jacket & the integrated clip on the net, very useable. For my trout fishing in rivers, it's the scoop net, lanyard & magnetic catch. I've repositioned the attachment from the handle, fixed it to the net head slightly off-centre so that the handle hangs behind me towards my left. (right-handed angler)

Neatly, thanks for asking...


Maclean weight net. Pair of strong magnets, and a coiled lanyard


Each magnet on a split ring. One half of the pair is attached to the D-ring on the rear shoulders of fishing vest.
Other half of magnet attached, with cable tie, to the hoop of the landing net. Magnets come together, and net hangs handle down from my back. One end of the coiled lanyard is attached to the handle of the net; the other end clips onto the left side of my vest. after releasing a trout, i can drop the net and it'll float around.


it's all neat and works well. Slight fiddle lining up the magnets behind me after using the net, but do-able.


used to my net hanging handle UP and net down - man, that would get tangled on everything!!!

"Neatly, thanks for asking..."     

That sounds pretty much like what I'm going to try this time Iain

Cheers

Anybody else noticed how much of the stuff listed on Ebay is coming direct from China nowadays ...... and I've ordered a couple of things listed as located in the UK that have been shipped from China by Chinese sellers too

Try a search for 'magnetic net holder' on Ebay and you'll see what I mean

Great stuff ...... Enjoy the wedding!

I use one of these Mike, slides onto your wading belt, I like it. Have yet to try it with my new sling pack though..... might have to adjust where it sits a bit.  I added a carabiner and cord to mine, it just made sense to do so.

I have one of the holsters strapped to my sling. Never use it as the only strap it's seems to work on makes the net sit at an annoying angle. Great for fishing light with everything in the wader pocket and net on the wading belt though.

Some people have enough problems with just the sling pack

slightly off topic

scoop nets for small river browns

has the transparent plastic/rubber any great advantages over the traditional cotton knotless net...?

Will let you know next season, my new one has the Brodin style ghost net.
