When selecting a bait net, make sure to choose the net with the features for your type of fishing. The net\u2019s opening must be large enough to easily grab whatever type of baitfish you have in your bait tank and the net\u2019s mesh must be small enough to keep the baitfish from slipping through. For large baitfish like mullet, you can use a bait net with a larger mesh. Small baitfish like anchovies require a small mesh. Bait net handles vary.<\/p>\n<p>While many are non-adjustable, some users can extend bait net handles for greater reach or collapse them for compact storage. Some designers design bait nets to float. \u00a0These nets have coated handles for added protection against the elements, and salt water especially. We do recommend rinsing them off after use for obvious reasons.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Usage:<\/h4>\n<p>As a fisherman on a rocking boat, grabbing bait from the live well by hand can be challenging. Use this net to get under the bait so that you can gently lift it out of the live well. With the bait in the net, you can pin the bait on the hook without directly touching the bait.<\/p>\n<p>Live squid will bite, sardines will scoot, and anchovies just don\u2019t want anyone to handle them. It&#8217;s not clear if fish can smell the human scent on live bait or if they even care.
