I'll cry if it ever bites the dust. As for the net, I'd never, ever, land one with out it, but that's my situation. I emphathize with nerve damage, trust me on that.<br /><br />GreggGregghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02623587945737239141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086087010292565905.post-27495260966965555782012-07-06T12:42:03.719-07:002012-07-06T12:42:03.719-07:00Looks like that Orvis sling pack.

I have nets but as you say Brookfield Angler; they are too cumbersome to carry when wading for Carp. <br /><br />Erin, I fished today for about an hour and forty-five minutes. I netted a 16 pound 6 ounce Carp along with a couple smaller ones. The net worked so dang well! I'm not trying to be coy about it. I had hoped to get some video of how it works but for now I will take a few pictures and post them soon.Mr. P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04714580767775813267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086087010292565905.post-49832793326008033712012-07-05T17:07:32.321-07:002012-07-05T17:07:32.321-07:00Nice Jim.

I have a clip screwed into the handle so it stays folded, and then i screwed a circle like screw into the handle. I bought a $4 dog leash and took the clip part off of the leash. The I just use the key ring to attach the dog leash clip to the pack strap. Sounds complicated, but it is pretty simple. The key ring slides down and the my left side because of the way the pack rides. So the clip stays on the pack...I just unclip the net to use it. Jim was going to do a similar setup with the dog leash. I will put some pics up later and I am betting Jim will as well. Getting that stupid net rigged right took forever...but I won't fish without a net. Too handy for the big ones. <br /><br />That stealth atom is a sweet pack!
