What is a Drop Net?

A drop net is made of two hoops joined by a cylindrical or cone-shaped net bag, designed to sit flat on the bottom and quickly lift up when you check your catch. Unlike traps, drop nets allow easy entry and exit for yabbies and crays, making them ideal for regular checking and fast action fishing trips. They’re also known as drop nets or fishing drop nets and are widely used for drop net fishing.

Types of Drop Nets

• Yabby Nets & Yabby Drop Nets: Specially designed for catching freshwater yabbies, these nets are lightweight, easy to deploy, and highly effective for quick soaks. Both yabby nets and yabby net options are popular for recreational and dedicated yabbing trips.
• Cray Nets & Cray Drop Nets: Built for strength and durability, cray nets and cray net models are perfect for targeting Murray crayfish and other freshwater species. Their robust design ensures you can handle larger, stronger catches with confidence.
• Crabbing Net: If you’re heading to the coast, a crabbing net or drop net makes catching blue swimmer crabs and mud crabs simple and efficient. Many nets are collapsible for easy storage and transport.
• Fishing Drop Net: These versatile nets can be used from piers, jetties, or boats for a wide range of species. Drop net fishing is especially popular for landing fish in hard-to-reach spots or high-walled structures.

Drop Net Features & Regulations

• Easy to Use: Simply bait the net, lower it into the water, and check it regularly—perfect for drop net fishing where frequent checks are needed for best results.
• Legal & Safe: Most states allow up to 3 drop nets per person, with specific size and marking requirements (e.g., maximum hoop diameter, buoy, and tag).
• Environmentally Friendly: Drop nets are less likely to trap non-target species for long periods, making them a more sustainable choice compared to some traditional traps.
