Betts Cast Net Mono 3/8" 4' Radius

The Betts Cast Net Mono 3/8" 4' Radius is a monofilament cast net built to deliver professional-grade performance without the professional-grade price tag. Whether you're casting into shallow saltwater flats, tidal creeks, or freshwater bays, this net combines reliable mesh construction with a compact 4-foot radius that's easy to handle from shore or a small boat. The monofilament material gives you good visibility in the water and decent durability for regular use.

What sets this cast net apart is its engineering: it's designed to sink fast once it hits the water, so you spend less time waiting and more time fishing. The net comes complete with instructional materials, so even if you're new to cast netting, you'll have the guidance you need to get the most out of it. At under three-quarters of a pound per foot, it's light enough to cast repeatedly without fatigue—an important factor when you're working a tide or chasing moving bait schools.

Betts Tackle has a solid reputation for nets that punch above their entry-level price point, and this model holds that standard.
