Nets question

I'm wanting to get a new net that doesn't get my hooks caught in it all the time.  Do any of you guys use the silicon nets?

My net is some kind of plastic material, but I still get hooks caught in it once in awhile. It has big holes though.

I would go with one of the "ghost" series nets from Brodin.  Really nice nets.  The good thing (and maybe bad) about the net is it does not collapse that easy in current so you have a good shot and landing your fish.  I cannot tell you how many times the last couple seasons I have had fish unhook themselves while in the net.  Flies don't get stuck in it that easy.  Here's my gallatin model in action.

I have a guide net made out some crazy stretchy rubber. Looks almost flat but it gets big with a little weight in it...I love it....Hooks dont get snagged in it at all...

The net I use now is very light cloth type that gets hooks stuck every frickin time I release a fish.  CJ, I like that "ghost" net, gonna check those out.  Thanks guys.

Measure Nets are available come stock with a replaceable mesh net and are very light in weight. You can buy the replacement rubber net.
