Many experienced carp anglers will tell you they consider a good carp fishing landing net to be their most important piece of equipment. Carp are big, powerful fish that can be quite a handful to land, and its vital to have a landing net that will prevent damage to the scales, protective slime and soft fins of the fish while securing and retaining the catch.

A net sized anywhere between 36” and 50” is suitable for landing a carp, but the average sized carp landing net comes in at 42”. They come with varying handle lengths (or telescoping handles to suit different situations), and dark-coloured soft micro-mesh (usually a murky green) so as not to spook the fish.

A landing net specially designed for carp fishing puts the emphasis on fish care, that’s why they are made to be tangle free and of strong construction.

We offer a good selection of top brand carp landing nets, as well as a choice of net floats which can aid greatly in fighting and netting fish when you’re alone on the bank.
