Product Information
Full details
The Daiwa Trout Net Tele - 60cm is designed for trout anglers seeking a lightweight and portable landing net. Its primary benefit is the telescopic function and folding design, making transport and storage simple. A potential caveat is that the telescopic function is not present on all models in the series (e.g., the DTN1). Key features include lightweight aluminum frames, a folding mechanism for easy transport, and easy-grip handles for secure handling during use.

Is this net suitable for saltwater fishing?
While the aluminum frame is durable, it is primarily designed for trout fishing. For saltwater use, it's crucial to rinse thoroughly with fresh water after each use to prevent corrosion.
What is the mesh made of?
The product description does not specify the mesh material, but it is typically a fine mesh suitable for landing fish without causing excessive damage.
How do I clean the net?
Rinse the net with fresh water after each use and allow it to air dry completely before storing. Clean the telescopic handle by rinsing and lubricating if needed.
Does the telescopic function work on all Daiwa trout nets?
No, the telescopic function is not present on all models in the series. For example, the DTN1 model does not feature this function, while the DTN4 (this model) does.
What is the warranty period for this net?
Warranty information is not provided in the product details. Please refer to the retailer or Daiwa's official website for warranty specifics.
Troubleshooting
Telescopic handle is stiff or won't extend/retract smoothly.
Rinse the handle with fresh water to remove any grit or sand. Ensure the sections are clean and try extending/retracting again. If stiffness persists, apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to the joining sections.
Net head does not lock securely when unfolded.
Check for any obstructions in the locking mechanism. Ensure the net frame is fully seated and locked into position before use.
Handle feels loose at maximum extension.
Ensure the telescopic sections are fully extended and properly locked. Avoid applying excessive force beyond the intended use.
