Orvis Wide Mouth Guide Net
The wider mouth on this net will help you land fish more easily. And it’s the right size for boat and wade fishing.
As the longtime fishing guide adage goes, a larger target is better when landing fish—exactly why we’ve substantially increased the hoop size in the Orvis Wide-Mouth Net series all the way through the yoke zone. Not only is it far easier to bag a fish with a hoop this big, but it’s also a lot safer when removing your fly from a fish with ample room to work.
The fish appreciate that, as well. Made from a unique composite material for lightweight durability that won’t show age as easily as wood, with a deeper, knotless, hook-resistant net bag. Pairs well with our Guide Sling Pack and Bug-Out Backpack, with a 19½” handle length that covers you from the waist to the shoulders.

This net makes a huge difference when landing fish. The wide mouth lets me grab the fish easily without having to struggle. It’s lightweight and the handle is comfortable to hold during long days on the water. I’ve used it on both wade and boat fishing and it performs well in both settings.

The knotless design and hook-resistant bag prevent damage to the net. I appreciate how it stays in good condition even after repeated use. The composite material feels solid and doesn’t get brittle over time. A reliable tool for any angler.

I found the net to be much easier to use than my old one. The wider mouth helps when the fish are active and trying to escape. It’s a bit heavier than I expected, but the durability is worth it.
