Location: Chisholm, MN | Powercatch is great. I've had fish up to 56 inches in it. I wouldn't mind having a big kahuna though. Main thing is to have a handle with a stopper so you don't over extend it. I know some of the above mentioned do not have that. I've also seen other net's handles bend. Not cool. |

Frabil big kahuna only net you'll ever need. These fish can relax inside the bag and reduce stress. not to mention we put several mid fifty inch fish in the bag and there's plenty of room.
The Kahuna and power catch are off the table for me. My fishing buddy (wife) is gone now so I'll be fishing solo and need a lighter net to use with one arm with a jacked up elbow. |

| Interested to handle these. I like a little competition in the event that I have to replace my Drifter XXL, though the only way I see that happening is if I drop it overboard or run over with a truck. That thing is BUILT and swallows 50's |

| If I am comparing apples to apples, the largest Clam net is quite a bit lighter than the Power Catch. Interested in seeing the actual net material. One issue I have with my Power Catch is that in very cold weather, the net is so stiff. Two years ago I caught a musky on a day where air temps were in the mid 20s in late fall.l Fishing by myself, I stuck the net in the water for a while just to loosen it up a bit before I tried to net the fish. All went OK but I had some concerns. |

Location: Rhinelander, Wisconsin | We've had the Pike net for a year, well made, works as advertised. They did a nice job, and like Frabill did originally, they listened and worked with influencers and grass roots folks in developing the product. |
