Never Fumble for Your Net Again.
The moment a fish rises, the last thing you want to be doing is wrestling your net off a clip. The Umpqua DreamStream Magnetic Net Release solves that with a clean, one-tug release — pull your net and the magnets separate instantly. Re-attach is just as fast: bring the two pieces together and they snap back into place.
We keep this one stocked at basin + bend because it's the kind of small upgrade that makes a real difference on the water. At $13.97–14.97, it's also one of the easiest wins in fly fishing gear.
Why the Umpqua Over Cheaper Alternatives?
- 8 lb / 3.5 kg magnetic hold — strong enough to keep your net secure through brush, current, and a full day of wading, but releases cleanly with a firm tug
- Aviation-grade aluminum construction — lightweight and built to outlast the cheap zinc versions
- Corrosion-resistant materials — handles saltwater, freshwater, and everything in between
- Streamlined shape — designed to prevent snagging on brush, line, and gear
- Carabiner + split ring included — clips to the D-ring on your vest, attaches to your lanyard or net handle
- Includes lanyard — ready to use right out of the package
Color & Pricing
Available in Black and Red — both identical in function, both on sale from $19.99 retail.
The Perfect Small Gift for a Fly Fisher
If you're looking for a stocking stuffer or add-on gift for someone who fly fishes, this is it. Practical, well-made, and something they'll actually use every time they're on the water. Pairs well with a landing net or a new fly box.
