Net Holders

What is your favorite net holder. I bought a net this summer. All I wanted was the old style french clip. Well, they don't sell them anymore. I got a magnet that fastens to the net, but that didn't work for me. What's your method?

I started out with an Edgin Handy clip years ago and went to magnetic when they came out and went back to the trusty Edgin. You can still get them. Simple spring design and just works.

I’ve been using an Orvis magnet forever. I got a Loon version when then cord word out. It wasn’t strong enough and I wound up cannibalizing it for the old Orvis magnet

The "Lobster Claw" snap used on seeing eye dog leashes also work great, if you are looking for a "snap" type clip. They are definitely "user" friendly.

I've had good luck with a magnetic one; but as others say the strength of the magnet makes a difference.

I used to use a magnet but since I have this bag I carry it in a slot of the bag made especially for this purpose. I don‘t look back...
