The Vinyl Coated Netting is the best that you can get for ease of use and strength. The knotless netting is coated with a supple soft vinyl that prevents hooks from catching on the netting and helps prevent harm to the scales of the fish. The coating also helps the net to cut easily and quickly through the water. The Gibbs-Delta GV-72 has a lightweight slideaway aluminum handle for ease of storage and a vinyl coated net. The handle of the GV-72 is 72”, the hoop is 32” x 32” and the bag depth it 36”.
