EGO, Jenko, and Prox 300 seem to be popular. Would like rubber netting, compact, and extendable to at least 7-8’. I am not stuck on any brand, so please add if you have something different.
Ego reviews indicate a handle issue.
Jenko didn’t have a lot of feedback other than stating they liked them.
Prox reviews were excellent, but I can’t tell if netting is rubber and having a hard time figuring out where to buy them.

The Prox netting is not rubber. You can buy a rubber basket net to replace the netting. The net material is made from silk worm gut and I have just not changed it out. Just kind of neat using a net made from silk worm. But I have to say you don’t want to use the net with cranks.....which I don’t use cranks so it is not an issue for me. What I love about the net is just how light and compact it is yet extends out to 10 feet. Here is a review of the net and a link in the description of where I bought it. Japan has many other brands of these types of nets also. If you check out some of my bank fishing videos this thing sure makes it easy. Since I only use 2 pound test actual break strength line a net is essential for me.Quote:

wow i had no idea a net could be a 100 greenbacks these days ,,,,i have lost touch with reality it seems
It sounds like it is time for a small independent manufacturer to offer a fair priced net. I had plans to get a new small net this spring.
Now I know better than to even look. :Doh:
I gave about 40 bucks for my ego easy reach and extends to 10’ no problem with extension if u keep it lubed every now and then! The rubber netting is great . :twocents
I have used both EGO and Jen on. As I spider rig in the front with 16 foot poles I needed a net with a bit of reach. The EGO is a great net but need both hands to hold it. Jenco net is very light. I like it the best. I broke my handle in some trees hanging over the water as I was trolling by. It bent a lot before it snapped in two. I believe it has a rubber net and I push crankbaits. Haven't had any problems with it. I like the bend it has in the front, nice for slipping under a fish. I have had some large fish in it and held great.
