great white

No problem Colin, I think I had the last one in the shop, when asked what it was all I got was, "a boat landing net mate" May be worth giving them a call, to see if they are getting more in.

Thanks all I was in Bournemouth with wendy earlier. So popped over to Christchurch angling. They had one simular to my broken one. So I picked one up. Just need to launch the boat on Monday and try it out.

Looks the same as Stainless Steve's, Lovely and strong to damn heavy

Nice one Well dine skipper

Well done Mal Keep all the doggies well fed up your end of the bay.

Thanks Jerry That what I had and am trying to replace, but am struggling to identify and source. I did think about getting the Aluminium hoop and net from Stainless Steve and using the handle off of the broken net. but of course the diameters are wrong.

Have you a make / model of what you use instead of the rubber one Mal?

Hi all I need to replace a lost landing net, with a large and robust one that could handle tope and rays. Large size with a long handle would be ideal. I am shying away from the gel nets as I am not sure of their durability with spiny or toothy fish. I have considered getting one from Stainless Steve , but am concerned about the weight when used single handed on solo trips. What nets do other Members use? and where did you get them from? Thanks Charlie

Sounds like a great return trip. Lucky for the fish that you did not have two rods onboard. I did wonder last night why you were out , on a day when the breeze was fresh in the boatyard.

Very nice fish.

Glad its fixed mate. I have to watch that with mine, if the wrong button is pushed it tries to reverse the track. Doh

Go get them Terry

Good set up Jerry I hope that the new owner makes full use of it. and gets a few bass next month

Nice one Steve We wanted to go with buddy boat and Dave could not make those early May dates. Hopefully you will get across, catch plenty and give us a nice fishing report with an update on how it is fishing. Charlie
