I need a new, heavy duty, long landing net handle, preferably telescopic but push in ones seem pretty good (unless you stand on them).
I don't seem to get on very well with them and they never seem to last very long as they gat some serious abuse.
Mainly for fishing rock marks where a drop net is not possible and where rocks can be too dangerous to get close to the water to net a fish.
The handle has to be able to pull a fish up (i.e. handle high and net below me at water level) and also sometimes lift a fish at full stretch.
3m would be good. 4m even better.
I have seen some people using some sort of homemade contraptions which look like they may be painters poles modified somehow?? Do those come with a standard 1/2 inch thread like what's on a net??
Any help appreciated.
Need to be able to handle the 20lb bass I am going to catch this summer ;-)
Cheers
