Haven't seen any with kayaks. Too much to unfold while reeling in a fish. I would recommend to switch out the net to a rubber one or you will be fighting it every time you fish with trebles.

I won one as a door prize a few years ago. It's at the dump now. 3 tails tear them up. Only used it one trip.

Rubber net with big holes is the way to go. They have one or two models at Academy. Pack and Paddle has some sweet ones too, even one with a forearm extension that lets you get some leverage for lifting those big hawgs!

Got one of those in my boat. Haven't landed any reds but have put some 15- 20lb catfish in it. It works but will give a little.

Have any of y'all looked at the stow master nets? I bought the saltwater trout, bass net. Very good net, kind of pricey though.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1368826921.322296.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1368826954.156246.jpg
