Shimano Aero Power Carp Landing Net Handle 4.00m 3pc Heavy-Duty Reach

The Shimano Aero Power Carp Landing Net Handle is a robust, high-performance handle designed specifically for the modern commercial match angler. At Gerrys Fishing, we recommend this 4.00m version for venues where you need extra reach to clear marginal weeds or to net fish safely from high banks. Unlike flimsy silverfish handles, the Power Carp is built with high-modulus carbon and reinforced joints to handle the weight and pressure of large, hard-fighting commercial carp.

The 3-piece design offers excellent versatility; it can be used at its full 4.00m length for maximum reach or at shorter lengths by removing sections for close-range work or margin fishing. It features a standard 3/8 metal screw thread that is double-pinned and glued for maximum security.

Key Specifications

Performance Features & Uses

• Exceptional Rigidity: Even at its full 4.00m length, this handle remains remarkably stiff. This is crucial when trying to net a moving fish in a crosswind; a stiff handle gives you much better control over the net head compared to cheaper, bendy alternatives.

• Reinforced Stress Points: Each joint is reinforced with a carbon wrap to prevent splitting under the high torque generated when lifting a heavy landing net head out of the water.

• Versatile 3-Piece Construction:

  • 4.00m: Ideal for clearing near-bank obstructions or high platforms.

  • 2.80m (approx): By using the top two sections, you get a very stiff, fast-handling tool for standard commercial work.

  • Short Reach: The top section can be used alone for extreme close-quarters or when netting fish from a boat/tight platform.

• Tactile Grip: The handle features a non-slip coating on the base section, ensuring you maintain a firm grip even when your hands are wet or covered in fish slime and groundbait.

Gerrys Pro Tip: This is the ultimate partner for the Aero Pro 22 or 20 Landing Net. Because the handle is so strong, you can confidently use it to scoop large fish. To ensure longevity, always try to walk the handle back through your hands rather than lifting it vertically like a crane when a heavy fish is in the net.
