Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Mobile lure anglers. The folding frame and hanging clip make it easier to carry while covering water and hopping between swims.
- Pike, zander and larger-perch anglers. The rubberised mesh and choice of larger diameters give you a better landing setup when trebles and bigger fish are involved.
Maybe skip if
- Ultra-light urban anglers. If your whole approach is a tiny lure box and the smallest possible rucksack, even the 50cm version may feel more net than you need.
- Anglers wanting a complete storage package. A separate carry bag or protective sleeve isn’t listed as included, so storage is down to your own setup.

Quick verdict
Verdict
This is a sensible, purpose-built net for lure anglers who want a decent reach, a fish-friendly mesh and fewer hook-tangle headaches. The rubberised netting and easy-fold design make it especially handy when you’re moving between swims.
Pick the size around the fish and venues you’re targeting. The 50cm version keeps things mobile, while the 60cm and 70cm models give you more room for a proper lump. It’s not the lightest, smallest net for ultra-minimalist fishing, but it looks a cracking all-rounder for predator work.

The robust frame, shaped arms, rubberised mesh and matt black finish make it look purpose-built rather than adapted from basic coarse tackle.
The folding design, useful handle lengths and broad shaped frame should work well across mobile lure sessions and awkward banks.
Fish-friendly rubberised mesh and reduced hook tangling can make landing and unhooking calmer, quicker and safer.
It folds easily and has a handy hanging clip, although the larger models will naturally be bulkier to carry.
The practical predator-specific features and three size options offer solid value, though the lack of a listed carry bag would’ve been a nice extra.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Fox Rage Warrior 2-Piece Predator Net
Lure fishing can be a proper game of two halves. One minute you’re fan-casting a reed line, and the next there’s a pike following your lure right to your boots. Then it turns. The rod hoops over, the clutch starts ticking and you’re suddenly wishing your landing net wasn’t buried at the bottom of the rucksack.
That’s where the Fox Rage Warrior 2-Piece Predator Net comes in. It’s made for the predator angler who wants a net that’s ready for pike, zander, perch and other lure-caught fish, without the usual faff of hooks disappearing into ordinary mesh. This isn’t a tiny match net dressed up for predator work. It’s a proper bit of kit with reach, room and a frame built around the job.
There are three versions to choose from. The 50cm model, NLN020, comes with a 2m handle. The 60cm NLN021 gets a 2.1m handle, while the larger 70cm NLN022 has a 2.4m handle. That gives you a decent spread of options, whether you’re fishing tight urban canals, stalking margins or standing above a river swim with a drop below your feet.
The main feature is the rubberised mesh. For lure fishing, that makes a lot of sense. Treble hooks and soft lure tails have a remarkable talent for finding netting, and once they’re in there, the whole unhooking process can get a bit spicy. Rubberised material helps reduce that hook-and-lure tangling, keeping the landing stage calmer and quicker.
It’s also designed to be fish-friendly. That matters when you’re handling a lively predator at the water’s edge. A suitable mesh helps support the fish properly while you sort the net, get the hooks out and prepare for a quick return. Keep the fish wet, keep the process tidy and don’t leave a pike thrashing around on the bank while you have a brew and a think.
The shaped arms are another useful touch. They create a larger netting area, so you’ve got more chance of guiding a good fish into the middle rather than trying to thread it through a narrow hoop. That’s especially useful with a broad pike or a chunky perch that decides to have one last scrap at the net.
The two-piece construction also suits the way predator anglers fish. You can carry it collapsed, get to the swim, then open it up when the rods are off. The easy-fold design cuts down on faff, and the hanging clip is dead handy when you’re mobile. Clip it where you can grab it quickly, rather than leaning it in the brambles or chucking it behind your seat.
Choosing the right size comes down to your venues and your likely fish. The 50cm version is the neatest choice for small rivers, canals and anglers who cover plenty of water. The 60cm model is the bob-on middle ground. If you regularly fish bigger waters, target larger pike or land fish from awkward, high banks, the 70cm with its 2.4m handle gives you more welcome reach.
There are a couple of things to bear in mind. Bigger predator nets aren’t exactly shrinking violets in a lightweight lure setup, and the larger frame will take more space while you’re walking. There’s also no separate carry bag listed, so you’ll need to look after the folded net yourself. Still, for a mobile predator angler who wants fish-friendly rubberised mesh, useful reach and fewer treble-hook dramas, this Warrior looks a proper practical choice.

Our take
The big angle
The Warrior’s strongest selling point is how well it fits real lure fishing. Rubberised mesh is kinder to fish and helps stop lures and trebles turning the net into a tangled mess. Add the shaped arms, folding construction and hanging clip, and you’ve got a net built for keeping the whole landing process calm and quick.
Built for the sharp end
A net that understands trebles
The Warrior is all about making the landing stage less chaotic. Its rubberised mesh is fish-friendly and helps reduce lures and hooks catching up in the net. That’s a big deal with pike and lure fishing, where a normal mesh can turn one fish into a full-on tackle knot.
The shaped arms give the netting a broader working area, while the robust frame and handle are designed for predator use. The matt black finish keeps things looking understated, and the easy-fold construction means it won’t be a total pain when you’re carrying a rod, lure bag and unhooking kit.
Worth knowing. No separate carry bag is listed as included. The hanging clip helps while you’re on the move, but it’s still worth protecting the folded mesh and frame in your own luggage or sleeve.
Match the net to the venue
Three sizes, three useful jobs
The 50cm NLN020 is the tidy option for smaller venues and anglers who spend the day walking. Its 2m handle still gives useful reach without going full scaffolding. It’s a good fit for canals, narrow rivers and close-in margin work where a compact net is less likely to catch on everything behind you.
The 60cm NLN021 is the safe middle ground. It adds a bit more room for a decent pike or broad perch while keeping the setup manageable. For many predator anglers, this is likely to be the most versatile size.
The 70cm NLN022 is the big-water option, with a 2.4m handle. That extra reach can be a lifesaver from high banks, steep margins and pegs where getting your boots close to the water isn’t sensible. It’s more net to carry, mind, so don’t choose it just because bigger sounds better.
Quick answers before you buy
The stuff anglers actually want to know
The Warrior is aimed at predator and lure fishing, rather than being a general-purpose coarse net. Its rubberised mesh, shaped arms and folding build all point towards fast-moving sessions where you’re covering water and need the net close at hand.
For pike, pair it with a proper unhooking mat or suitable landing setup, long forceps and a big enough set of cutters. The net can make landing easier, but good fish care still comes down to having the right tools ready before the screaming take arrives.
If you’re unsure between sizes, think about the worst awkward landing you’re likely to face, not just the average fish. More reach and a wider opening are useful insurance, but a smaller net is easier to carry and less intrusive when you’re stalking.
On paper
Pros & cons
What we like
- Rubberised mesh is a proper advantage around trebles and hard lures.
- Three sizes give you a choice for canals, rivers, reservoirs and bigger predators.
- Long handles offer useful reach from awkward pegs, steep banks and marginal cover.
- Folds easily and includes a clip for carrying between swims.
- Shaped arms create a larger netting area than a basic straight-sided frame.
Worth knowing
- The bigger versions will take up more room when you’re walking light.
- There’s no separate carry bag listed, so you’ll need to sort your own protection and storage.
- A large predator net can feel like overkill for small perch venues and tiny urban pegs.

Yes. The rubberised mesh is designed to be fish-friendly and helps reduce lures and hooks tangling in the net. You should still keep the fish under control and deal with trebles carefully, but it’s a much more suitable style of mesh for predator work than a basic coarse-fishing net.
