FAQs
What is the total length of the 6ft handle?
The 6ft (182cm) handle is a two-piece design, offering convenient transport. The combined length when assembled is 6ft.
What material is the net mesh made of?
The net mesh is made of an easy-flow, olive green hex mesh material.
Can I replace the net mesh?
While not explicitly designed for easy replacement by the user, the mesh is attached to the spreader block. Significant damage may require professional repair or replacement of the net head.
Is this net suitable for saltwater fishing?
Yes, after use, it is crucial to rinse the net thoroughly with fresh water to remove any salt residue and prevent corrosion.
How do I clean the shrink wrap grips?
Clean the grips with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Ensure they are dried thoroughly afterwards to maintain their grip properties.
What is the width of the net head?
The net head is 42 inches (approximately 1.07 meters) in width.
Does the two-piece handle affect the net's rigidity?
No, the handle and net arms are designed to be slim, stiff, and strong, minimizing any perceived reduction in rigidity due to the two-piece construction.
Troubleshooting
Handle sections feel loose
Ensure the spigot is fully inserted into the receiver. If the fit is still loose, check for any debris or damage that may be affecting the connection. Avoid forcing the sections together.
Net mesh is tangled or torn
Carefully untangle the mesh. For small tears, consider using a specialized fishing net repair kit. For significant damage, the mesh may need to be replaced.
Spreader block is difficult to open/close
Check the spreader block for any debris. A small amount of waterproof lubricant may help, but avoid over-application. Ensure the net arms are properly aligned.
Handle shows signs of delamination or cracking
This indicates potential damage to the carbon composite. Discontinue use immediately to prevent failure. Contact the retailer or manufacturer for potential warranty claims or replacement advice.
