PLUSINNO Kids Fishing Net, Telescopic Lightweight Landing Net with Aluminum Pole Handle and Nylon Mesh, Catch and Release Butterfly Net for Kids Youth Outdoor

i was hesitant to buy these thinking they'd be too heavy, was surprised to get them and how light they were to hold, easy to put together. gave these to my niece and nephew for their birthday and was a hit, they use the nets at the river for catching fish, frogs, and so light they can catch butterflies with the nets. these are worth the money, won't disappoint and the colors are great.

This is an absolutely amazing and high quality fishing net that my young siblings absolutely love! Though the description says that it is for children, this net is big enough and strong enough to be used to bring in some decent sized panfish (or to catch that swift butterfly!) The telescoping handle allows for an extended reach making it much easier to bring in your catch and for children to sneak up on the butterflies they would like to catch. The bright colors not only are fun for children, but they also allow for the net to be quickly and easily spotted when a child leaves it laying somewhere. The net portion is able to be screwed apart from the handle allowing for easy storage or for the entire net to be quickly placed in a backpack or other luggage! This net has truly provided hours of fun for the whole family and has held up extremely well from the wear and tear it has sustained from small children! I highly recommend anyone that has young children that enjoy fishing and catching butterflies and other insects to get this net for them! They'll have tons of fun and will absolutely love it!

The parts of this net are very well made. The telescopic feature is very useful for both adults and kids. I used it when catching fish and after my kids got bored fishing with a pole, they went after them their own way. The bright colors make it easy to keep up with. The wrist lanyard ensures it's not accidentally dropped in the water. As you can see in the photos, the net is perfect sized for children to handle and is very lightweight. This has now become one of the items we bring to every fishing trip. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is it takes a moment to get use to where the pole needs to be gripped to loosen up the net to extend and then tighten. I kept grabbing the net instead of the pole which caused me to keep screwing the net off.

My kids were really into netting this past summer so I ordered these nets. We now have them in our car at all times just in case.I love that the handle is expandable. My kids caught some cool creatures with the nets in ponds, at the beach and in creeks.

Was great to have. We had first bought our girls 4 smaller nets on Amazon, but these were much smaller, and all snapped over a weekend under the pressure of my young daughters moving them in the lake to pick things up. These however are very strong. Their were a couple of times that the net ring shifted minutely under pressure, but this was in the ocean, against a hard tide, and when I was admittedly using a lot of pressure to dig things up in the sand while snorkeling- and I was able toPut a little pressure on the ring and straighten things up. One of them did come out of the package with some of the paint scuffed off, which was a little disappointing bc they were brand new- but I didn’t worry about it enough to return it. The net held up well considering we did catch a large blue crab in one of them, and it held up. They do extend well, although after slat water exposure I could tell it was a little more difficult to do. The metal used on the blue nets was what sold me to get them rather than the pink nets which many reviews said had plastic parts.

My son wanted a net to catch frogs and turtles at our Cottage so we purchased this after looking at reviews. It is very lightweight which is excellent for a 5 year old.It worked great for 2 visits to the cottage but the third visit my son went to shorten the net and he noticed he could not push it down easily. The shaft was bench from using it, not in the water but just singing down at frogs (not even catching one). I was able to straighten it but then shortly after the glue came loose holding the net on the shaft. I ended up fixing it using an industrial waterproof adhesive from my work.I think they need to use a better adhesive when assembling this. We have not had an issue since using the other glue. We are careful with the net knowing the shaft bends easily. I guess that is the trade off for a lightweight aluminum net.

This net is excellent for kids and adults that are looking to be able to catch minnows and baby panfish first bait or even for landing panfish or trout. It breaks down really nicely so it easily fits in a standard size backpack. The net is heavier than it looks because of its all metal construction outside of the joint but it is still plenty light for backpacking trips. So far it seems plenty durable catching smaller baitfish but I have not tried to land anything larger than a bluegill with it. I would have absolutely loved this net when I was a kid trying to catch frogs and snakes and turtles. It is 1000x better than any Walmart butterfly net and it doesn’t cost too much more.

Sturdy. Well made. Happy with this purchase!

Needed a net for tadpole hunting with my kids. This one was the same price as the toy melissa and doug ones but vastly superior in quality. The handle telescopes to a nice length and the net is well made. We must have caught about 20 tadpoles. I'll be purchasing a second one!

Unfortunately the product had to be thrown away by recipient as it was a gift as the extendable stock gets stuck constantly and impossible for a child to extend as it gets stuck to the point you need builders tools to fix it.

Great quality and item is as described

Ma fille est très contente avec cette épuisette. Les mailles sont assez fines pour qu'elle s'amuse a attraper les petits poissons, grenouilles et tout ce qu'il y a dans la marre.Le système télescopique et la hanse démontable sont pratiques pour le transport.
