Ego S1 Genesis and S2 Slider Net Review

Ego Nets sent me a couple of nets a few years ago to try out and see what I thought of them. You might remember a while back I had an issue with the handle coming apart. I spoke with them back then and they informed me they had a batch of handles go out with a defect in the glue.
After getting that sorted out, I have had nothing but praise and good things to say about these nets. With the completely custom options, you can get the perfect net for your fishing needs.
If you're like me and fish alone a lot of the times (my buddies are getting tired of getting beat by me, ha-ha), the Gen 1 S2 slider has locking pins and a push button extender which makes it incredibly easy to use with one hand...so you spend more time fighting the fish and not the net.
I highly recommend checking out Ego Nets, again they're not a sponsor, I just really like the product and wanted to share the information.

I watch most of your videos (not always in order) and this videos just seems to be very crisp and clean, what ever it is I really like your videos, keep up the good work. I always learn something.

[@TackleJunky81]

Joe Hensley Appreciate the comment, Joe!

[@EngineeringHooksets]

Didn't know rubber nets had drag. Didn't even think about that. I'll go with the PVC. Thanks for the tips!

[@TackleJunky81]

My pleasure! 👊

[@bassnazi4713]

Glad you did this, had been looking at them but some reviews i had read kept making me second guess them.

[@TackleJunky81]

Bass Nazi You'll love it!

[@bassnazi4713]

TackleJunky81 had considered the sliding on since I'm on the bank during the week, usually only take out the boat on the weekends.

[@TackleJunky81]

Bass Nazi It's definitely more compact.

[@TheBaitmanTV]

Good nets. Gotta figure out how to ship them effectively. Just got a bunch in. Good review 👊🏻

[@TackleJunky81]

TheBaitmanTV Thanks bro!

[@victorxavier9977]

Good info I haven't seen anyone else review these, thx!

[@TackleJunky81]

Victor Xavier Thanks Victor!

[@LTOutdoors]

Some Awesome looking nets man! Great review bro!!

[@rookiehooksetslt3352]

Love the S2 slider 👍🎣

[@TackleJunky81]

Yes sir! 👊

[@diegojamesrobles7405]

This was helpful. I am buying one now.

[@TackleJunky81]

Who's looking forward to a tackle unboxing video?!?!

[@hunterlamore3928]

TackleJunky81 Me!!

[@bradhancock5780]

Love my slider, with PVC coated nylon. I do have to be careful not to pinch my hand when closing it though.

[@billcoerver4583]

Great video review , very informative!

[@TackleJunky81]

bill coerver Thanks Bill!

[@ajs8481]

Like the accessories that’s sweet 👍🏻

[@240LTS]

... What is the difference or differences between the Kryptek and the Genesis. One is red, the other blue. In my research I have seen both with sliding handles. Both with different net sizes, net materials and handle lengths. Their website does not call out the differences nor have I seen any videos or articles discussing this. If anyone reading this has the answer(s) please reply. Would like a side by side comparison. Thank you, . Jeff .

[@TackleJunky81]

As far as I know it's just color.

[@slonefactor]

Jim do the net heads collapse for storage like the farabills do?

[@TackleJunky81]

slonefactor They do not.

[@slonefactor]

bummer

[@19ADAM80]

Happen to have a code to use for them, I’m about to order one?

[@isaiahthebest8542]

Tackle Junkie the best to do it!!

[@joehensley8139]

Did you get a new camera, your picture quality is really good

[@TackleJunky81]

Joe Hensley No, I've been using the Hero 5 for the last couple years.

[@19ADAM80]

What’s your thoughts on the Frabile I think is the name of them.. The ones that the pole slides up into the net, and the net folds in half too? I’ve gotta get me one man..

[@TackleJunky81]

Haven't used those.

[@bobstigler]

■■■What was that net that you used before with the wrist sling deal...like a one handed type net. Did you like it...positives/negatives? Big fan of your channel and a faithful subscriber/watcher...thumbs up!

[@TackleJunky81]

Hey Bill, the net I believe you're talking about is the one that I used with Flukemaster. It may be by Yak-attack, though I'm not 100% sure on that. I do know that RS Nets makes a net like that as well. The positives would be that it helps give you more leverage, and really no negatives. Always appreciate the comments and views bud, thanks for watching!!

[@bacdoc6]

Tacklejunky81, What is the handle length and the hoop size of the S2 that you feature in this video? Thanks!

[@TackleJunky81]

George Doolin Handle is 29" - 60" and hoop is 19x21

[@davidrf1000]

I want one these nets

[@jakelauriente4149]

Just wondering what size basket do you use on the S1

[@TackleJunky81]

19"×21" I believe.

[@edricheson]

sold

[@TackleJunky81]

[@ifishcatfish]

why do you use such HUGE nets for bass fishing?? Even if u accidentally snag a carp, this is way too big. This is a trophy catfish net. I have a carp channel and catch thousands of carp per year and I use much smaller net. Feel free to check my carp vids. This net is HEAVY. Trust me - its heavy. and difficult to stow on a boat. Good net, good review, but I would look into smaller nets, easier to fit on a small boat.

[@PivotalG]

i_fish the large Ego Nets are 19x21 inches. That is no where near the size of a carp net and if you're using smaller than that you need to do research on proper carp landing and handling. You should be using a 42 inch head landing net for carp along with a landing mat to lay them on.

[@ifishcatfish]

Ryan Getchell my friend, i have netted several hundred carp this year alone. On camera. No need to speculate and argue when i have on video the carp in the small net. Dont get me wrong, i thing these are great nets, good review, but i think this is a big catfish net. The main reason i use small nets is because they are light and easy to maneuver while u are one arm handling a carp

[@PivotalG]

i_fish if you're using a smaller bet you're either catching small carp or mishandling the fish. As I said you need a much larger net forbthe fish to lay in not curl in. But to each his own. A 19x21 net isn't very large

[@PivotalG]

I just went through and watched some of your videos. The net you're using is much larger than the ones in TJ81's Boat. They just look bigger. I used to have that very same extendable net a while back. Loved it allowed me to fish spots I could never fish before but it had a pretty wide head on it larger than the Bass Nets I've used. Netting Bass and Netting carp are different processes which are why Bass nets typically are pear-shaped and carp nets are more triangular/rectangles. Also, nice Musky, but you're dang lucky you didn't get your thumb ripped to shreds holding it the way you did. One head shake and your thumb would have looked like it went through a cheese grater. Gill grab with really good stomach/vent area support and you'll be good.

[@ifishcatfish]

did you see my last carp video? Boilies vs corn? That's the net I use for carp. It is 20", green color. The triangular black net is huge, and i use it for blue catfish. Just in case of a trophy. I have never needed a net that size, but blue cats get large, you know, even here in IL. Also, if you browse further back, you will see plenty of 30# and a few 40# carp, all here from IL. I know nothing about bass, I am vulnerable there, but i assure you i can catch and net big carp. And thanks for the musky view! Perhaps consider a sub and watch me net some more carp this summer : )

[@HanSoloxcs]

You bought a net to match your boat lol...are you fishing or trying to be an instagram model?

[@Enyce7017]

@tacklejunky81

[@GEOPUZZLE]

Which hoop size do you recommend for bass (mostly) fishing?

[@TackleJunky81]

Chuck Barnett I like the 19" x 21"
