Purchasing a Salmon NET..need ADVICE

[Bustersit]

I had a nice Cumming net that went to the bottom of the lake (almost jumped in for it, still regret it).

 

I purchased a new one in July and I like the length of the reach but the size of the basket is to small for the mature salmon.

 

My cumming had big basket but the pole was not long enough.

 

Any advice for a wide net with a long reach?

 

Thx!

X2  Expensive but worth it.

It can be worth stuffing shipping peanuts or cut up pieces of pool noodles in the net handle so it floats

I replaced the nets on my boat with Beckman's and have looked back.

Which hoop size do you use

[FishingFool34]

I also use a Beckman, never had anything but goodluck with Beckman nets. I use the 26"x34" hoop on a 6-9ft handle.

Anyone know where I can just buy the hoop and net (Beckman) WITHOUT the handle?

I want to swap out the netting on the smaller to the new rubber nets...

Figured i'd have to go that route.  Every place wants to sell the whole package.

You can also call Cummings directly. They will make anything you want as far as hoop size and net depth. Handles are available up to 16 ft believe it or not. Got 2 from them a few years ago. Price was right and nearly indestructible
