Norfine Japanese Style Culling Nets (8″, 28cm, 38cm)

Norfine Japanese Style Culling Nets – Precision Koi Sorting Nets

Handle and inspect your fish with professional care using Norfine Japanese culling nets. Designed specifically around traditional Japanese breeder techniques, these shallow-pan nets offer the precision and delicacy needed when selecting fry, evaluating skin quality, or transferring stock into inspection bowls. Standard deep landing nets can trap fins or cause scale damage; these specialized tools ensure complete control and minimal stress during close inspection.

Ultra-Soft Mesh & Protective Design

The primary benefit of Norfine Japanese culling nets is the fish-friendly mesh weave. The soft, knotless netting glides effortlessly through water without causing friction burn to a koi’s sensitive mucosal coat. The shallow pan shape prevents young fish from folding over themselves, allowing breeders to guide koi safely into measuring tubs or photo bowls without physical harm or lost scales.

Versatile Head Sizes for Every Stage

Whether you are sorting small Tosai or inspecting mature specimens, Norfine Japanese culling nets come in three versatile sizes to match your setup:

• 8 Inch (20cm): Perfect for small fry selection, Tosai sorting, and tight bowl maneuvers.
• 28cm: Ideal all-rounder for medium-sized koi, bowl transfers, and routine tank checks.
• 38cm: Designed for larger fish, offering broad support during show preparation and detailed health checks.

Care & Storage Advice

Rinse with clean, non-chlorinated water after each use to remove pond debris or slime residue. Allow the net to air dry completely out of direct sunlight to maintain mesh strength and protect the wooden handle. Store in a cool, dry area to ensure long-lasting performance season after season.
