Handle Landing Net Rive R020, 5.50m

Rive R020 Landing Net Handle, 5.50m

The R020 is a landing net handle from the French manufacturer RIVE. This new range offered by Rive is available in three length versions and incorporates, thanks to tradition and experience gained over past seasons, the highest quality raw materials currently available on the market. As a result, it offers exceptional rigidity and minimal weight to provide anglers with the comfort and speed they need by the water.

A quality landing net handle can make a big difference during many moments of still fishing sessions. The R020 model measures 5.50m in length, but its construction and the materials used are similar to those of longer models, featuring high-modulus Japanese HR carbon fiber and reinforced joints along the entire length. It is very lightweight and can be used in two length options, allowing customization to suit individual needs. It is designed to be incredibly versatile and deliver top-level performance. It is suitable for both commercial lake fishing and wild river waters, consisting of three sections plus a 40cm extension, providing elite performance regardless of the size or species at the end of the line.

The handle’s versatility primarily comes from having two sections with universal threads fixed at their ends. This gives anglers the option of a thinner end of the handle, which can be used at any length from the tip section up to 5.50m. The second universal thread is located on the first section and is also reinforced like the first, offering anglers the option of a much stiffer handle with a thicker support at the net head's end (the carbon at the end is tapered to prevent an overly bulky final appearance). This handle style is very popular in lake fishing, providing maximum power and the control anglers need to easily lift and maneuver the landing net head through the water when recovering large fish.

The 40cm extension really comes into play when the landing net handle is used at its full length, giving anglers extra reach and control in addition to the super-stiff performance of the first threaded section fitted in this setup. The handle’s finish is smooth and slightly glossy, offering anglers a balance between maneuverability and grip while presenting a modern design. The threaded parts of the handle have been extensively tested by Rive specialists to ensure they are incredibly strong and reliable, both being double secured.
