You can also try using food to entice fish to swim close to the net, but this would depend on how stressed the fish are and how hungry they are at the time. If you’ve been trying to catch your fish for an hour already, they’re unlikely to care about food and probably just want to relax. Using a little food as bait is better suited to the start of the process to ensure the fish are not already fed up!

This will allow you more control over the cleaning process and make it much easier to guide your goldfish into the net itself.

Attach the hoop end to the magnetic release.Weight: The weight of the net is important since it will likely be hanging off your shoulders or waist all day long.
