ABSTRACT:
A collapsible fish net includes a pair of support arms (14, 16), a handle (12) and a flexible mesh material (28) disposed between the support arms. When not in use, the net is placed in a scabbard (40) with the support arms in a closely spaced, parallel relationship. When the net is removed from the scabbard, a spring 18 moves the arm (16) with respect to the arm (14) thereby opening the mesh material. A fish is guided into the mesh material so its weight causes the mesh material to collapse along the length of the fish, thereby securing the fish until it can be released.
