I always get inquiries about my landing net that came as standard equipment on my Skeeter. The company that originally made the net has gone out of business. But alas the net re-emerges as the Frabill Hiber-Net. There you go Laporte.

FYI these were on sale at my local Gander Mountain last time I was there a couple weeks ago. I think they were $69 at the time.
Net storage is about the last thing I haven't figured out on my boat, I just can't find a good place to put it other than in a rod locker but it takes up a lot of space and then it's hard to get out. How do you like this net?
They need training for that net. I can never get the one open fast enough when fishing with one of my skeeter buddies!?! Maybe if we fished together more...? Maybe...?
Im off to pick one up wags....
Ps thanks for the tour.
The net works well but does take a short training course for co-anglers. My Skeeter has two rubber mounts on the inside wall of the starboard rod locker that the net snaps into each with a rubber strap that then secures it in place. Didn't see these as accessories for the net but maybe I missed them.
what i noticed about those nets, if you happen to be fishing by yourself and forget to open the net and you want to land a fish you cant open it with one hand
