Going to finally break down and buy a net, yes I learned the hard way. I don't really have a great place to store it on my 17ft Stratos 273, so it will probably just lay out on the floor. Any suggestions on nets? Thanks for the input!

Room was a major consideration for me also. Laying on the floor really wasn't an option. I found one at BPS like this http://www.basspro.com/Bass-Pro-Shops-Go...oduct/10210370/I really like it because it fold down to a compact design and will flip open when needed. I plan on mounting it vertically on the side of my console with velcro.

Bought that exact same net because of space limitations. Easy to use and sturdy. Can be opened with the flick of a wrist. You can easily handle your rod in one hand and the net in your other and land your own fish. Only downside is it is not real long.
There will be a lot of Hiber-Net fans here, but the BPS net is easier to use in my opinion.

This is the one I use. Store it in a rod box when trailering and under the console when I'm running the lake. Pull it out and open it up when I start fishing. Frabill Power Stow

I have a h20 saltwater net. The basket is blue and the handle extends to 6' I believe.
