I've been looking at this net lock does anyone use one pro s cons etc?
On the video it shows them laying the net handle on a platform.Are they stable enough on one stick out in the water?
I've used cheap buzz bars and rear sticks,also the old wychwood net station.
The main thing that appealed to me was it would just be the lock and one Bankstick rather than carrying around extra sticks etc.
They're not exactly cheap so if they're no good I'll just stick to cheap sticks.
Thanks

Not great, it may suit platforms and artificial swims etc, but in realistic settings it's not much use, won't work with a net float either, so I modded mine to work but for £40 it could have been designed properly imo..

I've got to be honest I wasn't that convinced,
Thanks for the reply I'll give it a swerve.

I have one and use it with either storm poles or large banksticks depending water depth. For me its great. Holds my net above water secured ready for a take and also holding net in place with fish in it for getting ready for weighing/pics.
I agree it doesnt work with a net float but dont know why you would want to use a net float with it as literally its purpose is holding the net above water till ready to use.
Each to their own, for what I wanted out of it works a charm
