Who it suits
Is it right for you?
Great for
- Mobile lure anglers. The folding design and hanging clip make it easier to carry between swims while keeping both hands available for your rod and lure box.
- Predator anglers fishing awkward banks. The handle extending to 2m gives you extra reach when the fish is below a high bank, platform or margin.
Maybe skip if
- Anglers targeting consistently huge pike. The 50cm net diameter may feel tight for very large fish, so a 60cm or 70cm Warrior is likely the safer shout.
- Static anglers who only need a short landing net. The extra reach and folding mechanism may be more net than you need for low, straightforward swims.

Quick verdict
Verdict
The Fox Rage Warrior Net Medium looks bang on for roving predator anglers who need a net that folds neatly, reaches a fish at the water’s edge and plays nicely with lures.
The rubber mesh, shaped arms and hanging clip all make sense on the bank. It’s not the biggest net in the Warrior range, so proper lumps or very deep swims may call for the 60cm or 70cm versions instead.

The shaped arms, rubberised mesh, matt black finish and folding construction give it a properly considered predator-net build.
A 2m extending handle and larger netting area should make awkward-bank fish handling much easier.
Rubber mesh supports better fish care and helps reduce the chance of lure hooks becoming snagged in the net.
The easy-fold design and hanging clip are especially handy when you’re moving between swims.
It offers the features mobile predator anglers actually need, though anglers after big pike may need to spend more on a larger version.

The full rundown
Everything you'll want to know about the Fox Rage Warrior Net Medium
If you’re stalking predators with a lure rod, a landing net needs to do more than simply hold a fish. It has to travel well, open quickly and give you enough reach when a pike is sulking under the near margin. That’s where the Fox Rage Warrior Net Medium comes in.
This is the NLN020, the middle-of-the-road 50cm model in Fox Rage’s Warrior net range. It’s built around an easy-fold design, shaped arms and a handle that extends up to 2m. In plain English, it’s meant for moving from swim to swim without dragging a massive bit of kit behind you.
The 50cm net diameter is a useful compromise. It’s roomy enough for the sort of perch, zander and pike most lure anglers are likely to meet, but it doesn’t go full scaffolding pole like some big predator nets. You still get a proper landing area without making every short walk feel like a tackle-hauling expedition.
The rubberised mesh is one of the main reasons to look at this net. Rubber mesh is generally a much friendlier option for fish than coarse knotted mesh, particularly when you’re trying to keep a lively predator calm at the net. It also helps reduce the chance of lure hooks becoming a complete pain in the backside.
That matters with modern predator lures. Trebles, jig hooks and bits of terminal tackle can all find mesh remarkably well, especially when a fish gives one last cheeky head shake. A rubber mesh won’t magically stop every hook-up, but it should make unhooking less of a faff than it can be with ordinary mesh.
The shaped arms are another sensible touch. They’re designed to create a larger netting area, which helps when a fish doesn’t glide in perfectly first time. You want to guide the fish over the net, not chase it around the swim while it burns the last of its energy.
That up-to-2m handle is useful when the bank isn’t level with the water. Think high riverbanks, canal walls, platforms and swims with a bit of a drop. Keep the fish in the water, extend the net when needed and avoid leaning out like a prat to reach the margins.
It also comes with a clip for hanging the net while you’re mobile. That’s dead handy on a roving session. Clip it somewhere accessible, keep your hands free for casting and move on without having to wedge the net in reeds or balance it against a tree.
There are a couple of things to keep in mind. The Medium is still a 50cm net, so the angler regularly chasing serious pike may be better off with the 60cm or 70cm Warrior. And after a session, rinse the rubber mesh and let it dry properly. No one wants a bag of damp fishy pong living in the back of the motor.
Overall, this looks like a bob-on choice for the mobile predator angler. It has the right practical details: rubber mesh, folding arms, extra reach and a carry clip. Pick the size around the fish you actually target, and the Warrior Medium should fit neatly into a well-organised lure setup.

Our take
The angle
This is a mobile predator net first and foremost. The rubberised mesh should be kinder to fish and less prone to collecting trebles than ordinary knotted mesh, while the extending handle gives you a bit more reach when a fish is sitting below the bank.
The main thing to get right is size. A 50cm net is a handy middle ground for lure-caught pike, perch and zander, but if you’re regularly chasing very big pike, the larger Warrior nets deserve a look.
What you’re buying
A folding predator net with useful reach
The Warrior Medium has a 50cm net diameter, shaped arms and an easy-fold construction. The handle extends up to 2m, so it can help on high banks, canal edges and awkward margins where a short net leaves you stretching for trouble.
Its rubberised mesh is aimed at better fish care and fewer lure-hook tangles. That’s a proper advantage when you’re dealing with trebles and a lively predator at the side of the swim.
The matt black premium finish keeps the look understated, while the included clip gives you a simple way to carry the net between swims.
Worth knowing. The Medium is the 50cm version. Fox Rage also makes 60cm and 70cm Warrior nets, so choose the landing area around the size of pike you genuinely expect to meet.
On the bank
Built for moving, casting and landing
This is a strong fit for roving lure anglers who fish several swims in a session. Clip it on, keep your hands free and avoid carrying a rigid, awkward net while you hunt for a bite-time fish.
The extra handle length suits high pegs and steep edges. It’s also useful when a fish stays just below the margin and you need to get the net down to it rather than bringing the fish up into a dangerous position.
For very big pike, or anyone who wants loads of room around a thick fish, the larger Warrior sizes make more sense. The Medium is the versatile option, not the biggest tool in the box.
Quick answers
The bits anglers usually want to know
It’s designed to help reduce lure hooking compared with more traditional mesh. Trebles can still catch, so keep the net clear and deal with the lure carefully once the fish is secure.
Not always. It’s cracking from a high bank or platform, but on a low, simple swim you may not need all that extension. The useful part is having the reach available when the peg demands it.
Rinse the rubber mesh after fishing, especially after a silty or weedy session, then let it dry before packing it away. That keeps the net fresher and ready for the next round of casts.
On paper
Pros & cons
What we like
- Rubberised mesh is kinder to fish and less likely to grab lure hooks.
- 2m extension gives useful reach from high banks, platforms and snaggy margins.
- Easy-fold design and hanging clip suit roving lure sessions.
- Shaped arms create a useful landing area without making the net feel needlessly bulky.
Worth knowing
- The 50cm size won’t be the best fit for very large pike or unusually deep-bodied fish.
- A long extending handle can be more reach than you need on low, simple swims.
- Rubber mesh can still carry water and fishy gunk, so give it a rinse and dry properly after use.
