Default Boat Net

Hi

I'm looking to get myself a new boat net and found this on ebay.

BOAT LANDING NET - SALTWATER OR SALMON NET on eBay (end time 30-Dec-10 16:13:51 GMT)

Looks to be of sturdy construction, by a good name and very reasonably priced.

Too good to be true?

Not a bad price.But I would say that the head is a bit small,and the pole is a wee bit short,for a boat net IMHO.
I would be looking for a 24'' head and a pole of 6' not including the net.

Usually when something looks too good to be true it is! But this is so cheap it looks worth a punt.

I've taken a chance and it's on its way to me.

I'll let you know what the quality is like when I receive it.

Let's just hope that it sees some action!!
