KK'S GLAMS Telescope Fishing Landing Net (Foldable 1.5m Aluminium Pole, 43cm Net) — Silver & Green
Product description
The essentials
A landing net is one of those simple bits of kit that can make a day by the water smoother—especially when you’re trying to control fish without wrestling them too long. The KK'S GLAMS Telescope Fishing Landing Net is built around a three-section telescopic pole, so you can extend it to the full length for reach, then fold it down for carrying.
On paper, it sits in the practical, lightweight bracket: a telescopic aluminium alloy pole, a soft net designed not to damage scales, and a max loading figure of 4.5 kg. If you fish from shore, boat, river or lake and you want something portable rather than bulky, the foldable design is the main appeal.
Still, it’s not a “do everything, for any size fish” net. With a 43 x 43 x 43 cm net size and a stated load limit, it’s best thought of as a manageable landing net for everyday angling rather than heavy-duty trophy work.
What stands out in use
The telescopic layout matters more than it sounds. You get a net that can be adjusted to your needs: extended to 1.5 m when you need that bit of extra reach, then folded down to 63 cm when you’re packing up. In real terms, that means you can keep it close by on trips where space is tight.
The handle is described as having an anti-slip plastic grip, which is a sensible detail for wet conditions. The net mesh is also described as waterproof and rubber-impregnated, which is aimed at reducing water build-up and the kind of lingering odours that sometimes come with leaving nets to dry badly.
A small but important point: the mesh is described as soft and scale-friendly. That’s exactly what you want if you’re trying to land fish with less stress and fewer scrapes.
Key takeaways
This is a portable landing net that leans toward convenience: extend when you need reach, fold when you need storage. The pole uses aluminium alloy tubes, and the overall weight is listed as 0.32 kg, which should feel light in the hand and easier to transport than heavier fixed-pole options.
The net also has a distinct “care” angle. By using rubber-impregnated waterproof mesh, it’s designed to help limit water retention and reduce odour issues. It may not eliminate all maintenance, but it’s a good sign if you’ve been frustrated with nets that stay damp too long.
You’ll also like the flexibility of use cases: the dimensions are positioned as suitable for sea, river, lake and boat fishing. That versatility mainly comes from the telescopic reach and the manageable folded size.

Who it suits (and who should think twice)
It’s a good fit if you want a lightweight landing net that’s easy to pack and adjust. If you fish in a way where you’re carrying your gear around—shore sessions, trips from a boat where space is limited, or casual river and lake outings—this telescopic design makes practical sense.
It may not suit you if you regularly target fish that test the upper end of landing nets. The stated maximum load capacity of 4.5 kg and the net volume (43 x 43 x 43 cm) suggest it’s more of an everyday angling net than an ultra-heavy option. If you expect frequent, strong pulls at the limits, you may want something with a more robust spec.
Also, if you’re the type who prefers very large nets for easier control (especially when landing more active fish), this one’s size is solid but not “big warehouse” territory—so you might find it a bit limiting depending on your target species and technique.
Buying verdict
Buying verdict It makes sense if you’re looking for a portable, telescopic landing net with an anti-slip grip, rubber-impregnated waterproof mesh, and a reach of 1.5 m—while still keeping weight down at 0.32 kg. For most day-to-day fishing from shore, river, lake or boat, it’s the kind of net you can rely on without adding much bulk.
You may want to skip it if your fishing regularly involves heavier loads or you need a significantly larger net for easier control. Based on the stated maximum load capacity, it’s better treated as a practical, lightweight solution rather than a heavy-duty replacement.
Practical tips and quick FAQ
If you’re setting it up mid-session, a simple rhythm helps: extend the pole to the length you need, secure the locking system, then use the soft mesh to guide the fish in rather than “pinching” and holding it in place.
Is the net easy to carry when folded?
Yes—when folded it’s listed at 63 cm, and the description notes it can be carried in a normal bag after folding.
Does the mesh help with odours and water retention?
The mesh is described as waterproof and rubber-impregnated, aiming to reduce water build-up and related odours.
Will it damage fish scales?
The mesh is described as soft and not intended to harm scales, which is what you want for safer landings.
What length should I extend to?
Use the extended length (1.5 m) when you need extra reach, and fold to 63 cm for storage and transport. If you’re fishing from a spot with limited space, starting more retracted is usually easier.
What should I check before buying?
Check the maximum load capacity (4.5 kg) against the kind of fish you typically land, and consider whether the 43 x 43 x 43 cm net size will feel comfortable for your target species and landing style.
