Net recommendation for pontoon boat fishing
I am looking for a new net, or actually I specificly need one that is of a size to be used when fishing from a 9' pontoon.
I was wondering if anybody fishing from a pontoon could give me their ideas, or what you are using.
Particularly I want something that has about a 3' reach, knotless rubber netting.
I was reading about this company below.

I liked the idea that it extends at the touch of a button, but of course that may be one more thing to break..
Anybody have a 3' knotless rubber recommendation?
Fish would be 3-8lbs, small salmon size.

I use a rod holder on mine and turn it straight up to hold my rubber net. I'll try and upload a picture of it!

Re: Net recommendation for pontoon boat fishing
Yes, the rod holder for the net handle is kind of a given, but I was just looking for a make/model on a rubber net in the 3-4' range. Your size though appears about the length I was refering to thanks for the pic. I did come across a couple on Bass Pro online. It is surprising to me though how many options are available that don't fit my need.

Maybe something like this? This was the first one I found online but know there are some already on the market.
