Balzer Shirasu Telescopic Wading Landing Net with Magnet – 32cm

The Balzer Shirasu Telescopic Wading Net combines the portability of a compact trout landing net with an extendable 58–73cm handle, giving you extra reach when fishing from the bank or shoreline.

Designed with mobile trout anglers in mind, the net features a magnetic quick-release clip for convenient carrying, a safety cable to help prevent accidental loss and a rubberised 6mm mesh that's practical for lure and fly fishing.

The telescopic handle makes this net particularly versatile: keep it compact while wading, then extend it when you need additional reach from the bank.

Telescopic 58–73cm Handle

The standout feature of the Shirasu net is its telescopic handle.

When you're wading, the handle can be kept compact and out of the way. When fishing from the bank, simply extend it up to 73cm to provide additional reach when landing a fish.

This makes it more versatile than a conventional short-handled wading net, particularly for anglers who regularly alternate between wading and bank fishing.

Magnetic Quick-Release Clip

A magnetic attachment makes the net easy to carry while actively fishing.

Attach it to a suitable point on your fishing vest or pack and keep both hands free for casting. When a fish is ready to land, the magnetic connection allows the net to be quickly released for use.

Safety Cable

The integrated safety cable provides additional security when you're moving through the water or along the riverbank.

If the net is accidentally released or dropped, the tether helps prevent it from disappearing downstream or being left behind unnoticed.

Rubberised 6mm Mesh

The rubberised netting provides a practical alternative to conventional fabric mesh.

It helps reduce hooks becoming tangled in the net and is easier to rinse and maintain after fishing.

With a fine 6mm mesh, it's well suited to trout and other freshwater species.
