Wes, Those cheap BPS lippers are the best $15 Ive ever spent. And the Big saltwater float was a good investment too... I usually try my best to get big bowfin, catfish, pike, and gar in the boat without the net... especially the bowfin, they have a plate under thier mouth that always seems to get hung in the net then they start rolling.... no good..
If I net em Ill make sure to hold the line tight and vertical until I get the lippers on em so they dont get too tangled.
