Been running a beckman finsaver for a long time. Getting real tired of the untangling sessions that follow nearly every fish. Bag seems great for the fish but 7/0 trebles not so much.

Kahuna? Predator XXL? Cost and size aren't an issue. Probably keep the beckman for solo trips if needed though I would rather have just 1.

Real happy with this guy. Get the XXL...the mesh is nicely coated but not too heavy.

+1 for the Predator XXL. That thing swallows muskies boatside and is deep enough that the fish is always in the water.

I can ot say i have used every net. I can say if you do not like tangles get a heavier coated bag. The frabill big game has that bag for example. It lessens the tangle when they gator roll.

Not so worried about the fish getting tangled as that hasn't been a major issue. But hooks tangle up terribly bad in tbe finsaver.

BTW, I had the Big Kahuna and since I'm a wussy guy and fish solo a good bit of the time I sold the Kahuna bag and simply replaced it w/a Predator -- bag only!
