Reply With QuoteCrab nets... we get them here at about any tackle store, but we are coastal. Not sure of any other nets, but that is what we use. I used a net I modified with a broom handle for years... worked well.

Crappie Net Question
I have a question. Every time I go to one of the big crappie lakes I see guys using a fairly long but small crappie net. They aren't the larger ones you use for bass fishing or other sport fish, but appear to be for crappie. They are long so when spider trollers lift their rods they hardly reel at all, but just reach out with these lng crappie nets. What are they and where do you get one? I looked at Bass Pro today and couldn't find one like it.

This only my opinion, but nothing you can say will change my mind. That makes it a FACT.

Jigboy, an Ego net is the way to go. I ordered mine last year and have been pleased with it. It remains light even when full extended and the perfect size for a big slab crappie.

I also have the EGO reach and am very pleased with it. I think I got mine off EBAY!

Bass Pros has a new line of nets that Bill Dance in promoting. They have one just for crappie it extends way out and has a snag proof net. I got one last week and i really like it. It's $67 but it is high quality.
