In need of a new landing net handle. Looking to spend around £20. Telescopic preferable.

Not really looked myself but whichever you get make sure it has a metal bush / thread bit.

I use one of the cheap £10 aluminum handles extendes to aroun 10 feet. If you need longer (why?) then you will have to go for a carbon model.

I had a cheap one (£9.99) before Bryan and it was utter crap. They tried to stick the metal thread bit to the fibre-glass with what seemed no more than Pritt-Stick!

Mine is all metal threaded section riveted in.

sounds good bryan. any recommendations?

i know this isnt helping but go upper rather than lower as i spent £15 and when someone was lifting a 14lb pike out holding the handle 2 foot from the net it bent very nicely!

They don't have a name on them mate. I will try and find wer they come from next time i am in the shop.

Svendsen Sports do one for a tenner and it is aluminium all the way through. Might be worth a look, i'll let you know.

Its no doubt the same. Mine came with either a locking nut that tightens down on the centre pole or a twist locking mecanism.

For the price you can't go wrong.

I have one that came from J&K tackle in Bicester. Very strong, but fairly thick and teh lock is a simple clamp. Easy to deal with when it's cold.

I believe Drennan do a much thinner one, but since they don't have a website can't point it to you.

Jonny, do you want the handle for carp or silvers matey?

erm, fishing rivers for chub, bream, roach and the like.

I've spotted the shimano catana at £20. Looks pretty good! Though i might wait until GO Fishing and wangle out a bargain.
