Step 1
Get a net with an aluminum frame. They are lightweight and easy to maneuver.
-
Step 2
Choose a size that is going to accommodate the size of the largest fish you plan to catch, though most of the sizes are pretty standard.
-
Step 3
Select a net based on the fishing situation you plan to encounter most often. Long-handled nets are more adequate for boat fishing. Teardrop shapes cut through fast water currents best and are easier to carry on your back attached to your vest.
-
Step 4
Use a cotton or nylon bag, not plastic or monofilament. Cotton or nylon won't be abrasive to the mucus coat of the fish. Get a net with small holes so small fish won't get through them and larger fish won't get caught in them.
-
Step 5
Think about how you'd like to carry your net. You can attach it to your vest in a variety of ways, from a clip to Velcro to spring-loaded cables that you pull out and release to retract. Try the different methods out in the shop.
