Trakker Defy Landing Net

Trakker Defy Landing Net

The Trakker Defy Landing Net has been designed to complement the Defy range of carp rods and offers a lightweight, durable and most importantly reliable carp fishing net and handle perfect for netting large carp.

The 42 inch spreader arms on this landing net are slotted into a aluminium machined head block, ensuring that the base for this fishing net is sturdy. After all, the spreader block is the point of the net which is likely to be under the most pressure, as it is the meeting point between the fishing net (holding the fish which is exerting a downward pressure towards the water) and the landing net handle (which you’re exerting an upwards pressure on in order to lift the fish from the water). This is why the spreader block on a landing net is often considered to be its weakest point – this isn’t the case on the Trakker Defy Landing Net.

The landing net itself is made from reinforced deep olive mesh. Meshing on a fishing net is incredibly important, and Trakker has done everything in its power to ensure that not aspect of this fishing net can damage the delicate scales of the fish. Wide weave on the sides of the net allows for almost uninterrupted water flow through the landing net, allowing you to enjoy full control of the fishing net as you manoeuvre it under the water, yet tight meshing on the base of the net ensures that your fish is cradled carefully as you lift it from the water. The top corners of the Defy Landing Net have been reinforced, too, as this is the area of the mesh which experiences the most strain when landing your catch and the reinforcement significantly reduces the risk of the carp fishing net ripping or tearing – extending the life of your landing net.

As the name suggests, this is all topped off with a 6ft two piece landing net handle which features a distinct reverse-carbon finish. The Trakker Defy Landing Net has an incredible reach, so you don’t have to worry about leaning precariously over the water to land your catch, and 6ft is generally considered the optimum handle length for most anglers fishing with a standard 12ft carp rod. Carbon is an outstandingly lightweight material, so this landing net & handle is featherweight for its size and you’ll never have to worry about getting an aching arm as you hold out your fishing net for your catch. This also makes this Trakker landing net very easy to transport, as you don’t have to worry about it weighing down your carp luggage. The Defy Landing Net is finished with subtle black graphics and is supplied with a drawcord carry bag which not only makes transport and storage easy, but also prevents any water from dripping from the landing net in transport to and from the bank.
