3 1154 Fishing Net Review
Our verdict
The 3 1154 fishing net costs $24.99 and carries a 4.4 star rating, but its standout number is 400+ bought last month, well ahead of the 100+ figures for the Frabill 2152, the Frabill 9510, and the Fishing Net Trap, making it the clear demand leader among wade fishing nets in this price range.

Anglers who wade fish and want a small, portable net in a multi colored nylon build, at $24.99, backed by the strongest recent buying activity, 400+ bought last month, of any net in this comparison.
Skip if
Skip it if you need a bigger net for boat side landing of larger fish, since the small size here is dwarfed by the Frabill 9510's 20 by 23 inch frame, or if review volume matters most, since its 196 trail the Frabill 2152's 1,800.

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other fishing gear and tackle we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
Wading a stream with a compact net clipped to a vest is a different job than hauling a big fish over the gunwale of a boat, and the 3 1154 is built for the former. Its small size, nylon construction, and multi colored pink, green and blue finish, along with a portable design, all point to a net meant to be carried on the body rather than stored on deck.
At $24.99 it undercuts the Frabill 2152 by a slim 42 cents and costs a fraction of the Frabill 9510's $89.99. Only the Fishing Net Trap, at $15.98, comes in cheaper, and that net is built as a foldable crab trap rather than a wade fishing net, so the 3 1154 is effectively the least expensive purpose built wading net in this set.
The review numbers tell an interesting story. Its 4.4 star rating sits between the Frabill 2152's 4.3 and the Frabill 9510's 4.5, but it carries only 196 reviews, the smallest sample in the group. What it lacks in review volume it makes up in current demand, with 400+ bought last month against 100+ for each of the other three nets, a four times higher figure that points to a product picking up momentum right now.

Performance notes
The 3 1154 is built around a wade fishing technique, which favors a compact, lightweight net that will not drag or snag while moving through current. At 0.39 kilograms, roughly 0.86 pounds, it is noticeably lighter than the Frabill 9510's stated 2 pounds, which matters when the net has to hang from a belt or vest for hours rather than sit in a boat. The nylon material is a common choice for wade nets because it resists water absorption better than heavier blended fabrics. The small size designation and multi colored pink, green and blue finish suggest a net aimed at visibility and portability over raw capacity, a tradeoff that fits stream and small water fishing more than boat side landing of larger fish. The portable feature callout reinforces that this is designed to be carried rather than stowed.
What buyers say
The 4.4 star rating is solid but rests on only 196 reviews, the thinnest sample among the four nets in this comparison, meaning it could shift more with new ratings than the Frabill 2152's 4.3 star average built on 1,800 reviews. What stands out is bought last month at 400+, four times the 100+ figure reported for the Frabill 2152, the Frabill 9510, and the Fishing Net Trap. That combination, a respectable rating on a small sample paired with a clear lead in recent purchase volume, reads as a product that is currently gaining buyers quickly even though it has not yet built the long review history of its competitors.
