The Drennan Red Range 1.8m Compact Handle is engineered for the modern mobile angler. Whether you are moving between swims on a river or fishing tight pegs on a commercial fishery, this handle provides the perfect balance of strength and portability. Its rigid construction ensures you can maneuver a landing net through the water with precision, while the lightweight carbon-composite blank prevents fatigue during a long session.

Ultimate Portability

With a full working length of 1.8m and an incredibly short pack-away length of just 70cm, this handle is designed to fit effortlessly into almost any holdall or even a side pocket of a carryall. It is the ideal ready-to-go tool for stalking, roving, or simply saving space in your vehicle.

Confident Handling

The handle features a specialized textured anti-slip grip, providing secure and comfortable handling even when your hands are wet or covered in fish slime. This gives you total confidence when playing large fish close to the bank and making that critical final scoop. From hard-fighting commercial carp to silverfish and river specimens, this versatile handle is at home on any venue.

Pro Tip

Because of its ultra-short 70cm transport length, this handle is perfect for pre-rigging. Keep your landing net head attached to the handle and slide the whole assembly into your ready-rod holdall or a dedicated net bag. When you reach your swim, you can be ready to fish in seconds rather than minutes, which is often the difference between catching a fish while stalking or missing the opportunity.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Is this handle strong enough for large commercial carp?

Yes. Despite its compact size, the Red Range Compact Handle is built to be rigid and strong. It is specifically designed to handle the weight and pressure of large carp on commercial waters without excessive flexing.

Will my current landing net head fit this handle?

Almost certainly. It features a standard brass screw thread that is compatible with the vast majority of landing net heads on the market, including the Drennan range and other major brands.

Can I use this handle at shorter lengths?

While it is designed to be used at its full 1.8m extension for the best reach and rigidity, its compact nature makes it easy to manage in tight swims where a traditional 3m handle would be too cumbersome.

Is it easy to keep clean?

Yes. The smooth finish on the main sections and the textured grip can be easily wiped down after a session. We recommend rinsing it with fresh water if used on muddy banks to ensure the sections continue to slide smoothly
