KastKingPontus Fishing Net, Foldable & Lightweight Landing Net with Built in Length Scale, Strength Aluminum Handle, Fishing Gear and Gift for Men

The KastKing Pontus Fishing Net is a well-designed tool that combines portability with functionality, making it suitable for various fishing scenarios. Its foldable and retractable design allows for easy storage and transport, which is particularly beneficial for kayak or bank fishing. Constructed with a 6063 aluminum alloy handle and a durable FBR frame, the net offers a sturdy build. The handle extends up to 61 inches, providing ample reach, and features a reinforced aluminum rib for added strength. The floating EVA foam padding ensures the net stays afloat if accidentally dropped, reducing the risk of loss.  The net’s mesh is designed to be fish-friendly, minimizing harm to the catch, which is ideal for catch-and-release practices. Additionally, the built-in length scale on the net allows for quick measurements of your catch, though some users have noted it can be challenging to use with the fish inside the net.

Love the quick open, compact design.No problem netting catfish

Nice and compact, easy to store, easy to get out

I needed a small portable fish net for a while and finally settled on this one. It’s relatively easy to assemble and fold back up for storage. It’s lightweight and seems to be built well enough to handle traditional pan fish like trout and such.I like the PVC coated net. This will help prevent dry rotting or molding that’s known for traditional types of hand nets, though I would make sure it’s completely dry before storing it.The only thing I didn’t care for is the handle locking device. I find it a to be a little quirky and question it’s durability, but only time will tell and I will update if it does become an issue.A couple weeks ago a bat, yes a fur-less flying rat, somehow snuck into our house. Probably was sleeping under our door awning and flew in when the door was opened. Anyway, I did the John Candy and Dan Akyroyd scene from The Great Outdoors 1988 movie. LOL, wife was screaming and laughing while I was trying to corral the flying critter, but I was able to using some household items. Anyway, after elevating my heart rate, I caught it and released it outside, but all the while wishing I had a net!I do now and the likelihood of having another “bat-scapade” is unlikely, but it’s good to know I have a “just in case” net available is reassuring lol. 😝

I got this net to store in my backpack for fishing lakes that require a bit of a hike. It transports well, stays untangled, is quick to pull out and works great for the fish I’m targeting. I haven’t netted anything massive with it yet, but I’m sure it could hold up to just about anything I need it for. It seems to be quite durable and a lot better than the old string nets I used in the past.

Very good quality

Works well, nice and light, but the length is deceivingly short. Probably fine for netting fish yourself from a kayak but I bought it to net fish from a canoe. Buy the longer version

This has been perfect for the kayaks. Easy to store away. Durable enough to use on the bigger fish or the beer can you have to catch as it floats by you. The handle length could be a little longer. I didn't get the long handled one due to the fact I wanted to use on the kayak only.
