Default Brodin Ghost Nets

Anyone know much about these Brodin Ghost Nets?
I guess they're called ghost because they're clear.

I wish these were out when I was shopping for a new net. I bought
another brand net, with rubber basket. Reason for buying was, the rubber
netting is less likely to remove the fish's, protective slime coating.
It's a bit on the heavy side, but still a quality net. The Brodin nets
are lighter. I'm not so sure about the clear net not spooking fish, but
it certainly isn't a negative feature....imho. One other feature of
rubber nets is they aren't as likely to snag your flies. This can be a
VERY good thing, if you fish two fly rigs.
