Garbolino Netsy Carp Pro 260 Twin Scoop Handle | 3.6m
Power and Precision: The Ultimate “Two-in-One” Landing Net Handle
When you’re faced with a big commercial carp that’s determined to stay in the middle of the lake, or you’re fishing a high-banked river, you need a handle that won’t let you down. Here at Gerry’s Fishing, the Garbolino Netsy Carp Pro 260 is one of our go-to recommendations for the angler who wants a perfect balance of reach, power, and versatility.
The “Twin Scoop” system is a genuine game-changer. Equipped with two separate brass screw threads, this handle effectively gives you two tools for the price of one. Use it at its full 3.60m length for reaching over marginal weeds or high banks, or remove the butt section to create a shorter, incredibly stiff, and powerful handle for “bagging” carp in the margins. At just 440g, it remains light enough to maneuver quickly, even when you’re netting fish one-handed.

Where to Use the Netsy Carp Pro 260
This handle is designed to excel in demanding environments:
-
Commercial Carp Fisheries: Built specifically to handle the weight and sudden lunges of match-sized carp.
-
High-Banked Venues: The 3.6m reach is ideal for canals or rivers where you are elevated above the water line.
-
Speed Fishing Sessions: When you’re catching fish a cast, shorten the handle to use the second thread. The increased stiffness allows for lightning-fast “scooping” and better control.
-
Platform Fishing: Perfect for reaching past the legs of a platform or over near-side snags where a standard 2.5m handle just won’t cut it.
💡 Gerry’s Pro Tip
“The beauty of the Twin Scoop is adaptability. During a match, I start with the full 3.6m length to keep the fish away from the near-side shelf. However, if the carp start feeding in the margins, I immediately drop the butt section. Using the handle at its shorter length makes it significantly stiffer, giving you much more ‘grunt’ when you need to lift a big double-figure fish into the net quickly!”
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the benefit of having two threads?
It allows for maximum versatility. The thread on the end section gives you the full 3.6m reach. The thread on the second section allows you to use the handle at a shorter, stiffer length (approx 2.4m), which is much better for high-speed fishing or landing heavy fish close in.
Is it stiff enough for a large net head?
Absolutely. The Carp Pro 260 is built on a high-resistance carbon blank that is specifically designed to minimize “droop,” even when using a large 20″ or 22″ carp net head.
How easy is it to transport?
With a closed length of 1.52m, it fits comfortably into most standard rod holdalls and pole luggage.
Are the threads durable?
Garbolino uses high-quality brass threads that are both pinned and glued. They are designed to withstand the corrosive effects of damp nets and frequent use in both fresh and brackish water
