ONCE YOU OR YOUR PARTNER HAS HOOKED A FISH, IT’S UP TO HIS PARTNER TO NET IT AND PUT IT IN THE BOAT.

SOME OF THENETS NOWDAYS HAVE VERY DEEP BASKETS, AS THE ANGLER MAY FISH FOR DIFFERENT SPECIES OF FISH.

WHEN I NET A FISH, I GRAB THE BOTTOM OF THE NET AND PULL IT BACK TOWARTD THE HANDLE, THIIS KEEPS THE NET FROM TANGLING WITH OTHERT EQUIMENT IN THE BOAT.

THE EASIEST AND SAFEST WAY TO LAND A FISH AND NOT LOOSE IT, IS FOR YOUR PARTNER FIGHTING THR FISH TO STEP FORWARD, WITH THE NET MAN BEHINDTHE ANGLER LANDING THE FISH.

THIS ALLOWS THE ANGLER TO BRING THE FISH TO THE BOAT AND ONCE IT’S ON THE SURFACE THE ANGLER CAN STEP BACK, ALLOWING THE FISH TO FLOW BACK INTO THE NET.

NOTHING COMPLICATED, JUST A LITTTLE TRICK THAT WILL KEEP THE ANGLERS IN THE BOAT FROM GETTING UPSET WHEN THE BIG ONE GETS AWAY!
