Fishpond Nomad Native Hand Net 2.0 – River Armor Edition
Built for the minimalist angler, the River Armor Edition Fishpond Nomad Native Hand Net 2.0 is the grab-and-go option that still scoops fishes like a full-size platform. Lightweight and easy to carry, it attaches to the back of a vest or belt loop with the included lanyard, or pairs perfectly with a Fishpond Confluence Net Release. The carbon fiber and fiberglass composite frame is waterproof and weatherproof, floats like a cork, and features a matte finish that keeps a low profile. In the River Armor 2.0 edition, the frame is wrapped in a layer of woven DuPont Kevlar® fiber for enhanced durability. It comes standard with a TPU net bag that’s lightweight, harder to break, and stretches farther before failing than comparable nets tested the same way.

I use this net for quick river trips and it’s surprisingly sturdy. The Kevlar wrap holds up well even after a few drops in the water. It fits securely on my vest and doesn’t slip. The net bag is solid and keeps everything dry.

Great for minimalist fishing. It’s light and easy to carry. The floatation helps when I need to retrieve it from the water. A bit stiff to open at first, but once you get used to it, it works smoothly.

The durability is impressive. After a few hours of use in a fast-moving river, the net still holds its shape. The matte finish blends in with the surroundings, which is a nice touch for stealth fishing.
