Action Fishing Nets Pacific Island Net 2 Inch Mesh 0.60 MM 60 LB Nylon Heavy Duty Pro Grade Reef Pros 30 to 100 Meters
When coral heads, abrasive structure, and fast-running currents threaten lesser gear, this 2-inch mesh, 0.60 mm nylon Pacific Island net delivers the reliability professionals count on. Developed by Action Fishing Nets for demanding reef and coral fisheries, it balances catching power with controlled handling so you spend more time fishing and less time fixing. Engineered for Reef Environments
- 60 lb nylon netting resists scuffs and cuts from coral and reef edges, extending service life under daily commercial use.
- 2-inch mesh size offers proven selectivity—efficient on target reef species while maintaining water flow to reduce drag and bycatch pressure.
- 0.60 mm twine thickness holds shape under load without going rigid, improving set consistency and retrieval.
- 50 meshes in height provide substantial depth so fish are cradled rather than forced, helping reduce shake-outs during haul-back.
- 7 mm top rope with floats spaced at 1 m keeps the mouth evenly buoyant and open, promoting a clean, vertical wall in variable swell.
- Lead-core bottom rope adds sinking mass and tracking stability so the net sits where you set it—even in cross-tide. Why This Net Outperforms Generic Options
- Purpose-built for Pacific Island conditions: Materials and rigging are chosen for salt, sun, and coral abrasion—not calm lakes or sheltered bays.
- Balanced hang and depth: The height and twine gauge pair smoothly with the float and lead lines for fewer mouth collapses and more consistent soaks.
- Commercial-ready lengths: Available from 30 m to 100 m with custom builds possible to match your boat deck and set pattern.
- Low-maintenance workhorse: Durable nylon and robust ropes are easy to inspect, mend, and get back in the water fast. Real-World Use Cases
- Commercial reef runs: Long deployments along coral drop-offs where abrasion resistance and stable tracking protect your investment.
- Guided trips and charter operations: Predictable mouth opening and dependable depth help crews set and clear efficiently with repeatable results.
- Offshore structure targeting: When working bommies, pinnacles, or ledges, the 2-inch mesh and 50-mesh depth provide confident retention during surge. Specifications at a Glance

- Smoother sets: Even buoyancy and a weighted foot help the net drop clean and hang true, reducing twists and belly sag.
- Consistent catches: The mesh size and depth combination reduces roll-outs and gilling losses during retrieval.
- Fewer repairs: Tough nylon and reinforced edges stand up to daily hauls against coral and shell. Tips for Best Results
- Match your soak time to current and surge: Shorter soaks in strong tide preserve net shape and limit debris load.
- Rig clean, haul clean: Keep the float line untwisted and the lead line free of kinks to maintain a straight, fishing mouth.
- Post-trip care: Rinse with fresh water, check float spacing and lead line sheath for wear, and hang to dry fully before storage.
- Know your rules: Always verify local regulations on mesh size and net use in your fishery. Who It’s For
