Fishing Frenzy

Fisherman looking for the right fly fishing nets have a few different ones to choose from. Many times going to a site that sells these types of netting will easily confuse almost any fisherman. The best thing to do is to first understand the differences between them and then choose the one you are most comfortable using.

The landing net is a common type of net used when fly casting. There are a variety of different sizes to choose from to fit the size of fish you are after. Many times you will also come across a variety of different mesh materials used. Generally speaking the mesh is one that is finer and is often chosen by fisherman who want to release the fish.

One great benefit of this style net is to look for one that is attached using a magnet. This makes it easy to gain access to when you are ready to use it. The net can be attached to your backpack or your belt.

A boat net is another option you will find. These are very common usually with a deeper net, the mesh itself will also be made of either rubber or traditional material. One issue with this net is that often the fish and the hook will get caught in the netting. This makes it very difficult to remove either once inside.

A bag type net is one that has a very deep net usually made from rubber. This eliminates the problem of hooks being tangled up after a catch. Look for these to have a ring attachment at the top end. This allows them to be carried around on your pants or backpack with the aid of a clip.

To buy the right fly fishing nets you need to understand two important points. The first being that you understand the positives and negatives of any net you choose. Second the right net will also be dependant upon the size of the fish you are after, the bigger the fish the bigger the net must be.
