The world's first collapsible net with one-handed deployment and netting capability uses a uniquely designed leverage handle. This high quality, exquisitely designed and engineered landing net is a must for fisherman who wants the best.
Leverage Landing Net is the topic of the Macomb Daily article “Catch new products at the ultimate fishing show”.
“We all have stories of the fish that got away. But Jeff Kempf of Washington Township and partner Ross Smith of Oxford has engineered a Leverage Landing Net that could be the solution for bringing in the next big one.”

Eric Sharp, Outdoor writer for the Detroit Free Press had some nice words to say about Leverage Landing Net in his January 13th review of the Ultimate Fishing Show.
“I had a beautiful carp that would have gone well over 30 to the shoreline in the Saginaw River last fall, but when I slipped the net under it, the fish thrashed, landed on the net rim and was so heavy it twisted the handle in my fingers.
By the time I got a solid grip again, the fish had flopped back into the river, rolled three times, spat the hook and was gone, leaving me dejected and morose for a week.
That wouldn’t have happened if I’d been using the Leverage Landing Net, which not only collapses but is designed to give a solo fisherman the leverage needed to control and net fish with one hand.”

Nice review of the LLN at iCast by TackelTour.
“The Leverage Landing net is great for anglers that fish solo or just about anyone that wants to minimize the net footprint on the deck of their boat. The smaller size and quick deployment makes this a real option for anglers fishing from shore as well who need to carry all their gear from spot to spot.”
July 07, 2010 – Oxford resident Ross Smith found his way into the United States Patent and Trademark Office after coming up with an improvement to the standard fishing net.
Smith and his partner, Jeff Kempf of Shelby Twp., developed the Leverage Landing Net, a fishing net that allows a fisherman to keep one hand on the fishing rod while netting the fish with the other.

Innovative New Landing Net Debuts at ICAST
Leverage Landing Net, LLC is pleased to announce its revolutionary new landing nets, The Leverage Landing Net™ model BC1900 and the larger WB2250.
What makes The Leverage Landing Net™ unique is its innovative handle design, utilizing a simple arm brace and “pistol” grip that enables the fisherman to deploy and operate the net one-handed while maintaining control of the fishing rod in the other hand. The brace and grip combination enables your arm to act as an extension to the net’s handle, and increases strength and control when your netting fish.
The Leverage Landing Net™ is designed and engineered to be fully collapsible for easy storage in its optional heavy-duty canvas bag. The Leverage Landing Net™ utilizes a patented lock-hinge, which when triggered, extends the handle from its storage position to full length while simultaneously unfolding the radius of the net to its full dimensions, and then locking the entire assembly solidly in place.
The netting itself is a rubber-dipped knotless nylon, which is gentler on the protective coating of fish and also results in fewer hook snags. This makes the net perfect for catch and release.
The Leverage Landing Nets were put into the hands of high profile walleye and bass anglers across the country. They videotaped and tested the nets under all types of conditions trying to identify flaws and looking for ways to improve the current design. After years of tweaks and revisions the team at Leverage Landing Net, LLC have developed what many feel is the “ultimate landing net.”
The BC1900 was the first net produced and worked well for bass and crappie, but some felt it was a bit small for the needs of the walleye angler, so a larger version soon followed. The WB2250 was developed, and not only met the requirements of the walleye angler, but was demonstrated to be capable of landing anything from pike and steelhead in the Northern regions to redfish and snook in the South.
This American-made net is a must have for fishermen of any species and will soon be available in local tackle shops and retail outlets across the country. Check them out at www.leveragelandingnet.com Or call Toll Free at 888.666.0961
