Wide mono mesh or carp sack 'fishery approved' type ?
Am not talking 50 fish in the net here, just one at a time for a short spell on the odd occasion that I choose it might be appropriate not to let the fish back straight away, or maybe while I set up a camera etc!
Any suggestions?

Just an old carp sack stitched to a piece of chicken mesh, I'll knock one up no problem!

A large keepnet pegged upstream to rest a fish in times of low O2 water content would also be a reasable idea, but only one fish.
Personally I have not used a keepnet for barbel for many years.

I think the carp safe mesh net would be the best keepnet choice Eddie.

They were Rodders but are ace for most species that need a little shall we say after care.
1 or 1.2 metre in length. This shows you how popular they are/were......

Warren do you still make /sell them?
Look I am going to nail my cards to the mast here and its going to mean my bollox......right here goes
I will at some point in the future retain a barbel
so
Do I have to use sacks which I do not like or keepnets which work but can be impractical to use at times
Or
Will you sell me a Queenford?
And don't everyone else jump on the keepnet thing its old hat, I have been there too many times before. I aint a matchman stuffing 150lb of the thing in a net, just one per net.
