If your actually going to use a net for fish especially if your going to use one on halibut you should choose a small mesh or knotless landing net made out of a smooth non abrasive material. Nets with a large mesh will split the tails of halibut which leads to infection and often kills them. Nets with knots or rough twine scrape the slime and scales off halibut and lead to infection as well.

So if your going to actually use one get a good one. If your just going to stick it in your yak for reg purposes anything with a 18 inch diameter opening will do.
