How it is used here

Using a net like this on Tennessee water

The tools on a checklist are the things that make a trip go smoothly rather than catch fish on their own: a net that lands a bass without breaking the line, pliers that get a treble hook out of a catfish, a light for the evening bite on Kentucky Lake, a cart that gets a cooler down a carry-in bank access. None of them is exciting and all of them get used every trip.

Buy the simple version. A rubber net, a pair of long nose pliers with a cutter and a headlamp cover nearly every situation on Tennessee water.
