Anyone have any ideas who might do a landing net with a 6ft handle but comes with the option of a 3ft extension? Any recommendations? Thanks.

I would recommend Chris Brown based on my own experience, however a thread on here suggests he's retired.

He was always easy to get on the phone, might be worth a call. I have glass and carbon variations of his nets. If you have the budget then the carbon is a lovely bit of kit.

thanks for the recommendation - I'll check it out but have seen a couple of negative comments about quality going downhill.

I got the sonik one and its cheap and works great - never had an issue with it.

Carp Spirit do one that is also good (friend has it).

Glasgow Angling have a couple of JRC Cocoon Long Reach ( 3 piece handle ) in stock at less than half price ( only £ 60 now ). I got one last year but paid almost full price ... Grrr !

I have the Century C2 net, the extension is 2 or 3ft long and I use it 99% of the time

EDIT: From this page it appears the extension is 2ft...and my net is not C2 specific, it's generic.
My mistake due to also having the CQ net (which I bought off you Tel!) for use with my little set of 9' CQs)

I have one of the century nets with the 2ft extension. It is perfect with the exception of the spreader block which can make the net a ball ache to break down, especially with wet and cold hands.

Not quite what you asked for.
But I have used a Free Spirit S net since they became available.
It's got two 4 ft handles
Handy in a boat.
Recently bought the S light net with same pole configuration as I wanted two long handled landing nets.
