PLUSINNO Floating Fishing Net with Telescopic Handle - Compact

In this review the PLUSINNO Floating Fishing Net stands out as a practical, all-in-one landing solution for anglers who want a lightweight, corrosion-resistant kit that works for both fresh and salt water. The combination of a telescoping aluminum handle, a rubber-coated snag-free net, and included stainless steel pliers and lip gripper make this review focus on utility: it is best for boat, kayak, and wading anglers who need a compact net that floats and stores easily without sacrificing a hoop size that handles most sport fish.

Key Features

• Telescopic Handle: The 39 in extended aluminum pole gives extra reach for boat and shore landings while collapsing for compact storage.
• Hoop Size and Depth: The 15.8 in x 11.8 in hoop with a 9.85 in depth provides a classic landing profile that fits a wide range of fish sizes without being bulky.
• Floating Design: Foam padding on the hoop adds buoyancy so the net is retrievable if dropped overboard, which reduces the risk of losing gear on the water.
• Rubber Coated Net: The non-snag rubber coating protects fish for catch-and-release and resists waterlogging and odor buildup for easier care.
• Tool Combo Included: Stainless steel pliers and an aluminum/stainless lip gripper provide corrosion resistance, one-handed release, and reliable hook removal and line cutting.

Who It's For

The PLUSINNO net is ideal for anglers who need a lightweight, portable landing system for kayak, canoe, small boat, or shore fishing and who value catch-and-release friendly gear. It suits trout, bass, catfish, steelhead and similar species where a medium hoop and moderate depth are sufficient.

It may be less appropriate for anglers targeting very large trophy saltwater species that require a much deeper or wider net, or for those who prefer a fixed, heavy-duty handle for repeated heavy landings.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Lightweight and foldable design makes it easy to carry and stow in a kayak hatch or trunk.
• Floating hoop with foam padding reduces the chance of losing the net if dropped overboard.
• Rubber-coated, snag-free netting is fish-friendly and resists odor and waterlogging.
• Included pliers and lip gripper expand functionality for hook removal and safe handling.

Cons

• Telescopic aluminum handle is durable for general use but may feel thin for frequent heavy-duty saltwater trophy work.
• The hoop depth is moderate and may not suit very large fish that need a deeper net.

Our Verdict

The PLUSINNO Floating Fishing Net is a sensible, value-oriented choice for anglers who want a compact, fish-friendly landing kit that floats and includes useful tools. Its medium hoop, rubber-coated mesh, and telescopic handle make it especially good for kayak and shore fishing; buyers seeking a heavier duty trophy saltwater net should opt for a larger, fixed-handle model.
