Kids Fishing Net, Telescopic Lightweight Landing Net with Aluminum Pole Handle and Nylon Mesh, Catch and Release Butterfly Net for Kids Youth Outdoor

I was surprised that this net was much larger than I thought. That's fine, since it's for an older child to play with in the pool. If you're looking for a small net, check the dimensions.

good quality for the price.

Great net for kids.

So, I'll start by saying we did not get this for fishing. I got it to solve our road trip dilemma, how to get snacks and such back to the kids while driving (passenger and driver) since you cannot reach the back seat even if youre the copilot. We have three young kids, so I also needed to be able to open things when needed for toys and food.This net was perfect! It is plenty big for snacks and is long enough for the kids to grab the net and take snacks out all the way in the third row. It is a sturdy metal pole so it withstood toddlers pulling at it.It screws together easily and unscrews just as easily so you can store it in a basket( we keep a target plastic basket for misc things in van and it fits perfectly ).The only thing I imagine would be an issue is the ease of the unscrewing. It would get loose as we used it throughout our trip, but it doesn't bother me any.I'd buy it again.

This net is fantastic if you have kids that love to fish as much as you do. Brought the net out to the bank and had my 2 year old nephew haul in some fish while I had them on the hook. The net handled a 6LB channel catfish like a champ.Let's start with the pros, for starters the length is perfect for kids. Like stated earlier the nephew had a blast. The pole itself is colorful and vibrant, perfect for a child. And finally the pole can handle itself. Now don't get me wrong, don't expect to net in some larger fish, but I can say it handled a 6LB channel cat just fine.Now for the cons, the overall length of the pole could be better, I wouldn't mind a little extra length. At the current length, you're gunna have to reel in that fish roughly 3-4 feet from the bank to haul it in.As for the net itself, this net has two stress points, one in the middle, and the other at the top of the net. You have to screw in the net portion at the tip and the middle is a telescopic ring. I would rather see an all in one system where I can collapse the net in one easy motion and set it up as well.Overall it's a great net. As an added bonus, I came to fish on my own on a motorcycle and the net is pretty small and portable if you're riding on a motor. Hope this review is helpful for you potential buyers.

My two boys love all things salt water. These nets have been great for crabbing and catching bait fish. The flat edge helps with scooping. They have help up great to the salt water. Size is perfect. Easy to carry to the beach in a bag then extend the handle when in use. My favorite part is the crabs don’t get tangled in the net.

My son wanted a net to catch frogs and turtles at our Cottage so we purchased this after looking at reviews. It is very lightweight which is excellent for a 5 year old.It worked great for 2 visits to the cottage but the third visit my son went to shorten the net and he noticed he could not push it down easily. The shaft was bench from using it, not in the water but just singing down at frogs (not even catching one). I was able to straighten it but then shortly after the glue came loose holding the net on the shaft. I ended up fixing it using an industrial waterproof adhesive from my work.I think they need to use a better adhesive when assembling this. We have not had an issue since using the other glue. We are careful with the net knowing the shaft bends easily. I guess that is the trade off for a lightweight aluminum net.

Was great to have. We had first bought our girls 4 smaller nets on Amazon, but these were much smaller, and all snapped over a weekend under the pressure of my young daughters moving them in the lake to pick things up. These however are very strong. Their were a couple of times that the net ring shifted minutely under pressure, but this was in the ocean, against a hard tide, and when I was admittedly using a lot of pressure to dig things up in the sand while snorkeling- and I was able toPut a little pressure on the ring and straighten things up. One of them did come out of the package with some of the paint scuffed off, which was a little disappointing bc they were brand new- but I didn’t worry about it enough to return it. The net held up well considering we did catch a large blue crab in one of them, and it held up. They do extend well, although after slat water exposure I could tell it was a little more difficult to do. The metal used on the blue nets was what sold me to get them rather than the pink nets which many reviews said had plastic parts.
