I bought a carbon Fiber telescoping handle from China via ebay, for $45, free slow boat shipping (should be here today actually), and a Jenko large mesh rubber net head. Hope to be able to report back tomorrow on its use. Pole itsself collapses down to about 25" and 10.9oz.

Jenko has had issues with the handles no collapsing when wet.

I've heard southern crappie rod's net was a litttttle flemsy, but not terrible.

I'll report back with my findings on my China handled Franken-net.

On my pontoon my crappie net is a Ranger with a collapsible handle.

I agree with the rubber also. It's slower to move in the water on a really active fish but sure saves a lot of time being virtually tangle free.

@robbor I'm just gonna echo what RoughriverRick and SuperDave336 said and recommend to go with The Outlaw Net.

The net is pricey but it has some amazing reach, very sturdy but yet still pretty lightweight for its size. The net glides threw the water making it easy to scoop up fish. Couldn't recommend this net enough. Thought about going with a cheaper Amazon one but I am certainly happy I went this route.
