Go-everywhere and do-everything
Go-everywhere and do-everything, the Nomad Emerger Net is built for anglers who want one net that covers the full range. It carries easily in the net slot of a hip pack, sling, backpack, or vest, and its slim profile rides tight behind your body to avoid hangups on bushes and trees when you are on the move. From pocketwater brook trout to your personal-best brown, the Emerger feels equally at home wherever you fish. As with all Nomad nets, it is expertly crafted using a combination of carbon fiber and fiberglass, resulting in an extremely lightweight and durable platform. In the River Armor 2.0 edition, the frame is wrapped in a layer of woven DuPontTM Kevlar® fiber for enhanced durability. It comes standard with a durable, weather-resistant netting and a quick-release closure.

I’ve used this net on multiple trips to remote streams and it holds up well under heavy use. The Kevlar layer really helps with durability, and it doesn’t snag on trees or brush. Lightweight and easy to carry, it’s become my go-to for all types of fishing.
Irene Blake –
Great for backpacking trips. The net stays in place and doesn’t catch on vegetation. A bit stiffer than I expected, but that’s probably due to the Kevlar reinforcement. Works well for catching small trout and larger fish in slow-moving water.

Fits perfectly in my hip pack. The design is compact and the net doesn’t bend or break even after several hours of use. I’ve used it in rain and mud, and it still holds up well.
