i couldn't find one that would last. they would break where the handle meets the hoop, so i started building my own. too expensive to sell to folks. ss hoop welded to a ss coupling and a 1" x ? aluminum handle screwed into the coupling. the other one is all welded. 1/2 aluminum pipe hoop with a 1" aluminum pipe handle and rubber net. if you or a buddy can weld, this is the only way to go.

Dang bro! that's a net right there.
good work.

For size probably an 18" diameter with a deep enough net to get a reds body at least 2/3 's the way in should handle 99% of what is caught.

Sweet net. You could probably make some money with those.

I use an 18' diameter net and keep a small gaff on board for anything bigger.

Best net ever for bull reds and everything.

The telescoping handle rocks.

Last net you'll ever need.

Kinda pricey though.
