I bought a frabil, not sure of the size.. when i bought it the handle did not retract far enough.. So i removed the sticker around the handle and cut off the rubber stopper and it collapses all the way.. works great i've got a pic ill post..



I did think abouit cutting on and modifying a 65$ net but i figured it would be worth it.. plenty big net too! hope this helps

I bought the BPS Stalker (frabill), 36" handle. The net measures 22" wide. I also got an extra "spring button", from Frabill, so that the handle will lock in the closed position. This comes in handy when removing the net from storage, as the handle will not extend as you pull the net out. Note the button installed near the grip on the net handle.

I don't use mine, have a HIBER-NET. Screwed a couple of plastic clips on the lid for the net storage and it fits right there perfectly. No pics but can take a couple if anyone is interested. And yes I do not fallow the crowd and have to be different with my rigging

Call your dealer. Phoenix has a company that makes them. I got mine from my dealer.

I use this. Don't let the price tag fool you. It folds up and leaves plenty of room in the net box. It's lighter than anything comparable in size and handle big fish no problem.

I have the Stalker also that I got at BPS. But, I have the rubber netting on mine. Love the net!

I thought about the extra button on mine, but I opted not to. I like to grab the handle and let it extend while I'm pulling the net out. Works great when I'm by myself and forget to get the net out until I have a fish on. I can reach down with one hand and pull it out and net the fish in one motion if needed (have had to do it a couple of times).

Not fair!

I just bought a $10 Frabil Academy Sports had on sale. The handle would probably bend if I had to land a really big fish, but then again, I almost never have that problem

The net storage is standard from the factory. The net is optional.

The net is optional because the rigs are built by fisherman for fisherman that means fisherman know how to lip a bass without using a net Old fisherman old ways!

With that said only time I am inclined to use mine is on Dale Hollow if I have a keeper(over 21") on the line

I asked my dealer, and they said I'd have to pick up a net at a store. It's too bad they didn't have some sort of option sheet from Phoenix where I could have gone and picked out everything I wanted. I would have also gotten the compartment lighting and deck padding.

You might let your dealer no that he can get them from the factory. My dealer ordered one for me and threw it in with the boat. Just Saying

I just bought a 20 inch with 4 ft collapsable handle from Accadamy Sports in Chattanooga It fits perfectly and only cost $20.00
