Has anyone out here used the Quick-Seine net?
Any comments one way or the other. I'm thinking of getting one.
S.T.W.

Hello S,
I have one of them thingees. I have also used aquarium nets, and as Mike C
suggested . . . pantyhose.
I don't carry a net much anymore . . .my bad . . .but I like how the product
fits on the handle of the net. When I carry a net, I seem to take a Brodin
.. . . maybe a pro cutthroat series. (hmmm . . .with the net and the Quick
Seine thing . . .and the net attachment to my vest, I have
well over $100 invested in just a net . . .geesh.)
I should have had a net about a week and a half ago. Fast water, and brown
trout moving in to spawn, with rainbows right behind them to eat the eggs.
They helped me "travel" downstream everytime I hooked one.
Problem I have with the insect nets, including the pantyhose option, is
that in fast current, ya better grip your net with both hands. I've had
better luck with an aquarium net, but it is not as convenient. Have to
stuff it in the back portion of the vest, and seem to always need to take of
the vest to get it out.
Luckily for me, I find several nets per year, that I give away, because
folks somehow can't figure out how to keep the net itself kinda connected to
them. Never found any with pantyhose or a Quick Seine attached though.
So . . . if ya want to look at bugs . . .as I usually do . . .I'd pick up
one, if you don't mind the money. When the net somehow gets torn and not
usable anymore you can always stuff pantyhose into the carrying case, and
keep using it.
Given all that . . .I just usually pick up rocks from the bottom . ..or just
look at what happens to be flying around, or on the water. Then there
always those pesky fish I see that seem to be eating things below or on the
water. (I kinda pay attention to them too)
