Smarkey Telescoping Chicken Catching Net — 72 in Stainless Steel, Foldable Head & Ergonomic Grip

Smarkey's Chicken Catching Fishing Net is a foldable, stainless-steel telescoping animal catcher that extends up to 72 inches for safely capturing poultry, small animals, and fish.

Whether you're a smallholder rounding up chickens, a pest controller collecting injured birds, or an angler needing a compact landing net, the Smarkey Animal Catcher combines reach, corrosion resistance, and portability. Built from rust-resistant stainless steel with a four-stage adjustable pole and a collapsible net head, this tool is designed to reduce stress on animals and make single-person capture easier and safer.

How far does the handle extend and how stable is it?

The Smarkey pole telescopes through four stainless-steel sections to reach a maximum length of 72 inches, giving you added reach without leaning in. Twist-lock joints secure each stage so the rod stays rigid during use, and the stainless construction minimizes flex under load.

• Extends to 72 inches for greater reach.
• Four-stage adjustable rod for precise length control.
• Twist-lock-style collars keep sections firmly set.
• Stainless-steel reduces bending and rust over time.

Can this net handle different animals and activities?

This net is multi-purpose by design: the head and telescoping handle work for poultry, small mammals, and light fishing or insect collecting. The foldable frame and soft netting minimize harm while allowing you to scoop or trap creatures with controlled motions.

• Suitable for chickens, ducks, geese, and small pets.
• Also usable as a landing net for small fish or a butterfly net.
• Foldable head for gentle containment and quick release.
• Ergonomic grip to reduce fatigue during extended use.

How compact is it for storage and transport?

The Smarkey catcher collapses down to a compact size through its foldable net head and retracted telescoping pole, making it easy to store in a vehicle, shed, or garage. Lightweight yet durable, it’s practical for mobile use on farms, at fairs, or on boats.

• Foldable net head for smaller storage footprint.
• Telescopes down to a short length for transport.
• Lightweight stainless design balances durability and portability.
• Fits in tool racks, trunks, or over-barn hooks.

What features make it comfortable and safe to use?

The handle is shaped for a secure grip and the long reach keeps you at a safe distance from pecking birds or nervous animals. The net’s material and frame are designed to limit sharp edges and provide a gentle containment area, reducing struggling and injury risk.

• Ergonomic handle for steady control and reduced hand strain.
• Long reach allows passive capture without close contact.
• Foldable design prevents accidental snagging in storage.
