Review is on the 6ft radius. Much easier to work than the 8ft radius version I first purchased. I'm able to get it to fully open with only a small amount of swing. I use if for 3-6 inch bait like Gizzard Shad and White Perch for live baiting Rockfish. The net is only used from my boat on the Potomac and Chesapeake Bay. I've pulled in 3-4 lb catfish with the bait at times and the net has held up fine. Very satisfied with the construction.The were Q&A about the bottome weights. The lead weights at the bottom are approximately 1 inch long tube type sinkers, not the round ones. It will get twisted periodically, but easy to free while hanging the horn over the rocket launcher.
