I vote for the beckman finsaver extra deep. I am very happy with this net and would highly recommend it. Very fish friendly and I have no problems using it solo. Whatever you buy, get the deepest bag you can.

The Stowmaster gets by vote. All three make great nets, and I have owned them all. The Stowmaster folds up and you can put it anywhere. The undo and redo of the folding is very easy. I have had many "first time users" in the boat to net a fish. They had no trouble at all. Just don't force it, and it's fine. Have someone who owns one walk you thru the process, very easy.

All three have similar attributes, but the Stowmaster can be folded up, bagged, and stored out of your way. The mesh will never catch on anything when pulling it out. It's a no brainer, this will be my second year with one and I love it. You'll be happy.

I have used a stowmaster for the last 3 years.There have been over 250 muskies from 8 pounds to 40 pounds in the net with no complaints from clients or fishing partners. The netting is not hard on the fish because of the rubber coating. Also the nettings holes are small so it is hard for a muskie or small pike to get get the edges of its mouth,lips and teeth caught in it. The treatment on the netting also keep hookpoits from getting caught in it. Which saves you time and less stress on the fish.
The TS116Y is the one I don`t leave home without. The people at stowmaster care about the fish and the fishermen. And they listen when someone has a problem. It is the best net I have used by far.
