Love this net, it is truly the perfect size for CO wade fishing. Small enough to stay out of your way, big enough to handle your next PB trout. I have put well over 100 days on my net dropping it, smashing it on bushes, falling in the river, stepping on it, and the thing is still as good as new. The build quality is crazy strong yet light enough to not think twice about putting in a 15 mile day in the high country. All around perfect net, only knock is it does not float so be careful where you set it.
