I can't really write a long review about a landing net but i'll do my best to highlight the main points.

To start with the net costs only £7.99 at York of Norfolk. No matter what way you look at it, this is a fantastic price for a scoop net. Compare that to Hardy's scoop net and it is 7 times cheaper!

The finish seems to be variable as I purchased two of these nets and on one of the handles the wood was discoloured, however, this will not affect performance in the slightest.

I thought at such a cheap price that the net may have been compromised quality but it seems a good strong net, i tested it with some heavy objects and there was no sign of strain so holding a good sized fish should be no problem at all. The mesh itself is a nice small holed mesh which looks excellent for catch and release.

In my opinion anybody looking for a scoop net could do a lot worse than buying one of these. At £7.99 it is an absolute steal and will serve you well.
