For Halibut, get one that has a net that looks like it is for bait. It will have small holes (smaller than the end of your pinky finger) and thick material (either woven or rubberized).

I catch and release my fish 99% of the time and use a large rubber mesh landing net. I bought mine from Bass Pro.

I've caught legal butts and landed them in the net without any obvious issues.

I also have a smaller one for trout fishing that works well (from Sport Chalet), minimize handling for a "healthy" release.

Promar makes a net with knotless catch and release mesh. It's very soft and the holes are smaller than a normal angler net.

The rubber nets seem like a good idea to avoid getting stray tackle caught up.
