will they be any good to put on the end of your landing pole of the 42" specimen net?

Hmmm, dont think I would trust them, they're made of aluminium so will strain and could weaken.

Why use them on a net - how long does it take to screw a net on or spring the arms out ? Excellent for quick set up of alarms etc, and probably even a match pan, but would be wary of heavy use such as trawling kippers out of the margin with 3 hundredweight of weed ....

Yes that what I thought but was it for the specimen landing net or coarse fishing landing net? Getting confused now :confused: :confused:

Hi Andy

For a tenner you could get them and try them, but its difficult to say how much load these will take. Give them a call, but whenever I've used even aircraft grade ali for fittings it does age over time and landing nets are often put under a lot of leverage unwittingly - for the risk involved I'd play safe ?

There are many quick assemble net fittings on the market that slide or clip together and are 100%
