KastKing Pontus Floating Fishing Landing Net with Built-in Length Scale

I got this net to store in my backpack for fishing lakes that require a bit of a hike. It transports well, stays untangled, is quick to pull out and works great for the fish I’m targeting. I haven’t netted anything massive with it yet, but I’m sure it could hold up to just about anything I need it for. It seems to be quite durable and a lot better than the old string nets I used in the past.

The reviews on this are spot on. I really like the size of the net and that it folds up the netting is great quality as well.

I bought this kit for the price of the net alone. Good Kast King quality- Folds up compact & has a nice bag...The measurements printed inside are kind of useless & you may want to go with the longest handle possible if you fish from the bank or a boat!

I decided to get the net because of its floating capabilities and the inner depth of the net area. I already have a net that I use on my small pelican bass boat. The issues that I have were almost losing the net on more than one occasion when it accidentally fell into the water. The shallow net area makes it difficult to land larger bass and I would often get my treble styled lures tangled up in the net, which is a complete pain. The KastKing net solve all of those issues. I’m impressed with the thick floating mesh that helps prevent it from sinking if you accidentally drop it overboard. Being that non threaded material is used for a majority of the net, removing my lure is a heck of a lot easier now. While measuring your fish while it’s in the net isn’t the most practical thing to do, having a measuring scale allows you to get a really close estimate of how long your catch is, which is nice. Although the extended handle is shorter compared to the other net I have, it is very well built and feels solid in my hand. The foam at the end allows for a more secure grip on the net. Locking the extension pole into position is done easily with a few twists. Simply slide the collapsing lever down to easily fold the the net in half for storage in the included storage bag. The fish grips that came with the kit are much larger compared to the one connected to my scale. It has a wider mouth for handling larger fish. I will definitely be swapping out my smaller one for this. Lastly, the included hook remover works as advertised. At first I thought it wasn’t working properly when I initially used all four fingers to pull the hand back. I learn that using you lower two fingers for gripping and your upper two finger to pull the trigger works best and it’s actually very easy to pull back. Overall this is a well built bet and is definitely worth the money. Hope my review helps someone out there.

So I ordered the kit with the net, grip, and hook remover. The net (large) seems pretty good. The quality is comparable to more expensive collapsible nets I own. That one side is wire/nylon might be an issue with larger fish (larger pike, mid-size musky), but usually fish that large require a sturdier net anyway. The hook remover looks and feels legit, though I have not had to use it yet. Not really a big fan of the bass lip grip, but that's just me. Overall, it's. a great value for a more portable collapsible net.

Great product. It was exactly what I ordered. Leaving for a fishing trip soon. Hopefully to fish cooperate so I can truly test this product.

Downsized my boat this year and was looking for a smaller and collapsible net. Found this one and it is a huge space saver. The quality is good. The first fish that I got to try it out on was a decent Pike, followed by a bunch or 2-3 bass. The net worked great. The mouth grips are good and I have not tried the hook remover. Would buy again.

This net can’t handle a fish of any significant weight(+5lbs) The handle extension doesn’t lock securely. Not a great net for boat use.
