Looking for a mid sized net, something rubber coated would be nice. A folding or extending handle is important to make it easier to carry on my back, the depth of the basket would need to be around 15"+ deep and the basket length around 20"-25". Looking to spend around $20.

 

Thanks,

Chris

I would try to find a net big enough to comfortably fit a larger fish and it should be strong. I think it would run you closer to 30-35 bucks

I have a walk'n'wade pro, im not considering selling it but just as a suggestion. I want to say its a 20'x16', perfect for mobile fishing, biggest steel ive had in it was about 13lbs. I bought it on sale at BPS for 15$

You sure that's not a pontoon IR4J? 20 feet by 16 feet is a bit overdoing it for a steelhead.

I appreciate the sarcasm for 20 inches by 16 inches.
