On the water: freedom of movement and fish safety

The short handle and buoyancy: two decisive advantages in wading and float-tube fishing

The Fox Rage Short Mag-Net Medium was designed for anglers who wade in rivers or fish from a float-tube, two situations where a long-handled landing net quickly becomes cumbersome and unsuitable. The short handle offers better control at arm's length when netting, particularly in current areas or when stability is precarious. The floating design is concrete peace of mind: if the landing net slips from your hands during movement or a fight, it stays on the surface and can be easily retrieved without interrupting your session.

In a boat or kayak, this same compact format facilitates storage on board and handling in tight spaces. The 60 x 50 cm hoop of the Medium format provides sufficient opening to net the vast majority of predators targeted in lure fishing: standard-sized pike, zander, perch and black bass.

The dual magnetic attachment: immediate access to the landing net

The magnetic system positioned at the top and bottom of the handle allows you to attach the landing net to a belt, wading vest or tackle bag without having to hold it in your hand between casts. The dual magnet ensures firm retention even during movement, while allowing quick single-handed release at the moment of netting. This type of quick access makes a real difference during a short fight with a reactive predator, where every second counts to control and secure the fish properly.

A deep rubber net, designed for fish handling

The net on the Fox Rage Short Mag-Net is covered with protective red and black rubber that limits the risk of hooks catching in the mesh and facilitates lure detachment after netting. Its 50 cm depth on the Medium format ensures secure retention of the fish in the net without risk of it escaping when moving toward the shore or boat edge. The rubber net also protects the fish's protective mucus layer, which is particularly important in catch-and-release practice or careful water return.
