Landing Nets

Here at Bristol Angling Centre, we stock a large range of landing nets to cater for the largest specimens that you might catch abroad or the double-figure fish from your local lake. Our range of smaller landing nets are perfectly suited to small water double figure fish or other species such as bream, tench, barbel, large chub and even big perch.

Things to Consider When Purchasing a Carp Landing Net

Your net is just as important as your fishing rod and end tackle, after all, you don't want to win a battle with a carp just to fail to bring it onto the bank!

Using a Durable Landing Net Handle

Your landing net handle needs to be durable to ensure it can easily lift your carp out of the water. Because of this most handles are manufactured from fibreglass and carbon fibre.

Your requirements and budget will determine which type of landing net handle is best for you. At the higher end of the range is our high modulus carbon fibre handles, offering a strong and light option. We also offer fibreglass handles for the more budget-conscious carp angler. Additionally, many of our carp landing net handles are supplied with a metal or high-grade carbon spreader block to reduce the chance of breakage, as the spreader block is often the weakest point of the handle.

There is a variety of choices available when it comes to the length of the handle, to suit your venue. Many landing net handles are supplied with 2-piece handles, perfect for easily transporting or ideal for using at the shorter length when finishing from a boat.

Ensuring the Landing Net Arms Are Wide Enough

Carp landing net arms are available in a range of different lengths; however, 42 inches is considered the most popular size for carp fishing in the UK, as this ensures the net is longer enough to land most UK carp. However, larger size net arms are available and ideal for use abroad where carp and catfish can often grow a lot bigger than in the UK.

Net arms are manufactured from the same material as the handle, either carbon fibre or fibreglass.

Having A Safe Landing Net Mesh

Your fish care products are just as important as the rest of your tackle, so a ‘fish-friendly’ mesh is crucial for your net to help protect the carp after landing. The mesh for nets comes in various colours from black, green and camo, to suit your environment. Landing net mesh is also available in different depths, with the deepest nets most suitable for larger carp, and the shallower nets designed for competition carp anglers who want to land the fish and get back in the water quickly again, therefore saving time.
