Shimano Aero Pro Landing Net 20 (50cm) Pan The Commercial Standard

The Shimano Aero Pro Landing Net 20 is the quintessential all-rounder for the modern commercial match angler. At Gerrys Fishing, we find the 50cm size to be the most popular choice because it is large enough to comfortably secure big commercial carp while remaining compact enough to be highly maneuverable when speed-fishing for F1s.

Built with a high-strength extruded anodised aluminium frame, this net is remarkably rigid. It utilizes a dual-mesh designfeaturing larger holes on the sides to cut through the water and a finer mesh on the bottom to protect the fish and prevent hook tangles.2 This ensures that you can net fish quickly and safely, even in the middle of a high-pressure match.

Key Specifications

Core Performance Benefits

• Hydrodynamic Movement: The 5mm side mesh is a game-changer for speed. It significantly reduces water resistance, allowing you to sweep the net through the water much faster than standard all-fine mesh nets.

• Tangle-Free Bottom: The 3mm base mesh is designed specifically to prevent hair rigs and barbed hooks from getting stuck. This is a vital feature for match anglers where every second spent untangling a rig is a second lost.

• Robust Spreader Block: The polycarbonate ABS block is incredibly resilient. The dual-screw attachment ensures the frame is locked solid, eliminating the head wobble that often occurs with cheaper nets after a season of use.

• High Fish Welfare: The soft-touch, fish-friendly material ensures that the fishs scales and protective slime are not damaged during the landing or unhooking process.

Gerrys Pro Tip: If you frequently fish venues with a mix of silverfish and carp, the 20-inch size is your best bet. Its light enough for skimmers but has the mouth width to accept a double-figure carp without needing multiple attempts. Pair it with the Aero Pro Power 3.0m handle for a perfectly balanced setup.
