Net???

[BillyBoy23]

What is the best type of muskie net???? We boated a 42' fish last night and i almost couldn't get it in my net. I am looking to upgrade and need some advice. Thanks

Beckman makes a good musky net, so is the big kahuna.

$$$$$ cost alot?

Plan on spending a $120 + for a new one (depends how big of a hoop and coated or uncoated bag), look/ask around you can find used ones cheaper.

Beckman and Frabil make good muskie nets. Get a knotless coated one as they are the easiest on the fish. Buy the largest you can afford. They make great pens for working on the hooks while the fish is still in the water in the net. I think Stowaway makes one also although I have not seen one.

A good muskie net is one of the most important things you have in the boat. I have a Beckman, cost me about $150.00 WORTH EVERY PENNY!!! Frabill makes a good net too, It is important for the fish and your safty, while you are unhooking the fish next to the boat and makes it easier to pull the fish up for a pic.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I found a nice used Frabil on craig's list today for $65.00. Should be my net for a long time. Bring on the fall bite muskies!!!!
