They were really nice looking nets that were also made to collapse and open with one hand and had a brace on it for use by yourself. www.SteveHodge.org www.diamondsportsmarine.com www.moritzchevrolet.com www.kistlerrods.com www.lock-n-haul.com www.finchnastybaitco.com www.continentalbattery.com www.purefishing.com www.bizzbaits.com

Mike, I have the Great Net from BPS with the folding head and collapsing handle, but I only see this in rubber netting now in the catalog. I've had it for 5 years now and no problems. the fisherman formerly known as Blu-Ranger....
