I agree Byron. I just started using a rubber net because I believe it is better for the fish. I usually carried my old nylon mesh net, but didn't use it often when nymphing because of the hassle of untangling the second fly from the net after releasing every fish. I found myself handling the fish rather than using the net, which cannot be good. First impression of my new rubber bag is that I'm sorry I waited so long to get one!
