Looking at buying a Stowmaster net to safe room in the boat. Looking for feedback from owners of their net.
Thanks,

I have used one this year since april. Very easy to use and simple to store. I highly recommend them.

JMW;

Tom Pinckney a.k.a. "MuskieKid" has used the stowmaster net since last season and has said many good things about it. If you've never visited his website, check his site out at www.ToothyCritters.com. I'm sure he would be pleased to give you his comments on these nets.

Cheers and tight lines,
Mike

I have a very small boat and purchased a Stowmaster Musky net last year. It is a quality product with a excellent net, strong hoop and very long/strong handle. I does fold up so that it does not take up much space. When opened, it is just as good as anyother Musky net that I have seen.

The only problem I see with the net is that it's somewhat hard to open if you are by yourself and you wait until you get a fish on before you open it up. It could be very difficult to reach down, open it up and slide the handle out, while at the same time fight a fish. If you have a partner with you in that situation, it is the perfect net for you because they open it.



Remember...fish don't live in ugly places!

I like to use a cradle for my ski's. Mine is a home made job but it works great.
