As the longtime fishing guide adage goes, a larger target is better—exactly why Orvis substantially increased the hoop size in the Wide-Mouth Net series all the way through the yoke zone. Not only is it far easier to bag a fish with a hoop this big, but it’s also a lot safer when removing your fly from a fish with ample room to work. The fish appreciate that, as well. Made from a unique composite material for lightweight durability that won’t show age as easily as wood, with a deeper, knotless, hook-resistant net bag. Shorter, compact 9″ handle designed for the wading angler’s convenience.
