Used to see these advertised. Offset grip/handle and fold up. Their website is nonoperational but have seem them around. Anyone here not using a Beckman or Frabill that has anything good or bad to say about the Strong Arm? Thanks.

I have one and would have to say I like it better than any Frabil that I have owned. I have never used a Beckman net so I can't compare it to the "cadilac" of nets. Resting your elbow in the offset gives you alot of leverage if you are fishing alone and netting a large fish one handed.

Once a large fish is in the net, hold the net handle straight up. This closes the net, and you have lots of time and both hands to raise the catch into the boat. It also minimizes the strain on the net's hoop.
