Frabill Net Baitwell 6"x6" D Hoop 16" Handle Orange Nylon

The Frabill Net Baitwell 6"x6" D Hoop is purpose-built for anglers who want to keep live bait healthy and unharmed during a day on the water. The D-shaped hoop design and 16" handle give you comfortable reach into bait tanks, buckets, and wells, while the soft nylon netting protects even delicate minnows and shiners from stress or injury. This is the kind of detail that separates a functional net from one that actually works—bait stays lively, and you spend less time chasing escapees.

The molded polyethylene net guard is the standout feature here. It takes the abuse when you're scraping against the inside walls of a bait tank or bucket, absorbing the contact that would otherwise wear through cheap netting or harm whatever you're netting. Whether you're fishing live baitfish in saltwater, freshwater, or running a portable baitwell setup, this guard keeps the net durable and your bait uncompromised.

Frabill knows what works for bait fishermen, and this net reflects that focus. The bright orange color makes it easy to spot and grab in the boat, and the straightforward design means there's nothing to fuss with—just dip, scoop, and keep your live bait in top condition for the cast.
