Different Types of Keep Nets and When to Use Them

Keep nets come in many shapes and materials, and each has its place. Round or square framed nets sit differently in the water, square frames often lie flatter on the bottom and are popular on platforms and canal pegs, while round frames are easy to angle and move when you fish from natural banks.

Fine soft mesh is kinder to fish scales and fins, which is important if you regularly practice catch and release, while stronger, slightly stiffer mesh holds shape better in current. Shorter keep nets are practical for small ponds and quick evening sessions, longer keep nets are better for high banks, deeper venues and competitions where you expect more fish.

At Jahikala you can choose keep nets designed for carp, bream and mixed species, with durable rings, reliable attachment points and fish friendly mesh, all in one place, with wide selection and best prices.

How to Choose the Right Keep Net?

How to choose the right keep net for your venues? The right keep net depends on where you usually fish, for low natural banks and shallow lakes a medium length keep net is enough, for high platforms, steep river banks or deep canals a longer keep net keeps the fish well covered and fully under water, even when the level drops.

How to choose the right mesh and frame? To choose mesh and frame, think about target species and rules, soft knotless mesh is ideal for carp and bream and is often required in matches, stronger mesh can be useful if your venues have rocky or snaggy bottoms, square frames are popular with match anglers because they sit flat, while round frames can be easier to position from a boat.

Jahikala offers keep nets with adjustable bank sticks, strong stitching and reinforced rings, so your net lasts for many trips. With wide selection, best prices and fast delivery, upgrading your keep net is simple and convenient.
