The Sharpe's Gye net has been a trusted piece of angling equipment since its first design in 1928. Anglers widely consider it to be an exceptional net that has stood the test of time. This net is designed to be carried on your back with a webbing peel sling. To deploy, simply release the sling, and the net head will fall into place, allowing for one-handed operation. This particular model features a 48-inch sliding handle and a 20-inch diameter net frame, both constructed from high-tensile aluminium. It is equipped with a cast alloy powder-coated block for durability. The net comes with a leather peel sling and a high-quality Sharpe's knotless net bag. The net bag has 1/2 inch (14mm) square meshes and is approximately 24 inches deep.
