I have broke my free spirit landing net, I have spoken with free spirit it can be repaired but will be shorter. Before I broke it I always struggled with the length and have since been using a drenham twist and lock which has been brilliant. However I'm looking at purchasing a new handle, anybody know of a decent longer handle?

Don't know if your net will fit but give Graeme a call at DYMAG, Stalker net handle breaks down to 2 X 3ft sections and order another middle section will make it 9ft, with the option for 3 different lengths. For boat, normal bank and extended

Not cheap though but worth it

I have an esp sniper you can twist it out from 6 to 8 foot. Keep looking on eBay for another but they seem to be like gold dust

I have the Harrison 2piece chimera very good net handle, lasted me years so far, strong as anything. Covers all my angling requirements, I have 3 piece that takes it to 9ft

I also use the Drennan Specialist Twist Lock 3m. You could try asking Keith at Defiant MPS if he'd do a longer version of the new pole he's doing.
Are you sure?
