folding spoon nets

[Steve Brand]

Anyone got any views on these? I have a korum one that I quite like but looking for a larger size maybe the wychwood folding specimen net any ideas comments or would I be better served with a fixed frame spoon In a big size?

I've had the larger wychwood folding spoon net for a while now,landing a decent barbel last season one of the arms snapped at the spreader block managed to land the fish still.I pulled the broken bit out cut the arm strait and am still using the net now,one thing I like about the net is the magnetic holder it makes landing the fish a lot easier and when landed gives the fish a deep net to rest up In.Good luck.

I've got both the large folding Korum and the Wychwood.I prefer having the complete rigid frame once assembled of the Korum rather than the cord set up of the Wychwood although the magnet gadget is handy.However I'd only use a folding net if faced with a long walk making a solid framed net a touch impractical to carry.The Greys specialist spoon net looks good, large diameter and a deep net ideal for resting barbel after capture or before release.

I've used the Wychwood net all summer with no problems. I like it for roving sessions and travelling light.
