Location: Eastern Ontario		Cradles are an accident waiting to happen. If the bait comes loose it heads for the face of the guy holding the cradle. Get a big Frabill

Agree 100% AND you can net fish solo AND you can take a "green" fish if not hooked well much easier with a net AND you have to play the fish longer with a cradle ....get a net

It's the best live well ever

Location: Mt. Zion, IL		I have a Stowmaster net and a Frabill net. The hoop on the Stowmaster is awesome and light. The Frabill netting (big kahuna) is very, very durable and tangle resistant. The best net you can buy is a Stowmaster/Frabill Power Stow and the Big Game net bag. This will make it easy to store and tangle resistant. Stay away from the cradle.

Yes, "coated" frabill big game net for sure and especially if you ever were to fish alone.
