Lost a Musky net yesterday- South end waubesa in 6-7'-- If any one finds it would be appreciated if it was returned. (will give you a case of beer or something) Is old and beat up but has had a lot of fish in including a lot of personal bests. I can ID it with a pic sure there's not many out there. Probably a long shot, but I have returned nets, rods, locators and tackle boxes to people so hopefully the good karma gets returned.
Thanks,
Jeff Hanson

Jeff if you go back there where you think it might've lost it you know you use a Lure with some treble hooks or snagging hook and see if you can snag the net and you'll pull it up. A magnet is not gonna work and less it's made of steel I think most nets are made of aluminum good luck buddy.

Did you lay down a waypoint when it went over? Neighbor had a rod go over he tossed down a waypoint. Drove home to get a weighted treble hook and picked it up the first pass.

Good luck! I regained a net that i lost two years prior, it was snagged by a person who seen me lose it. The blueing was gone along with the foam but the bag and the structure intact.

Or a rebar drag would cover ground faster, basically a gigantic treble hood

Still searching for it? One of my buddies snagged one today. Thought it might be yours.

If you fill the handle of your nets with spay foam insulation they'll float.
