I store my fishing net on the bow with the pass through open.  I'm looking for ideas on changing its placement.  Thanks Billy Mac  ;D
 
Sometimes mine is there, in the cuddy, or mostly...I keep mine between the port side seat and the gunnel. Looks like you have a back to back seat...put the net end up front and let the handle lay in the floor.
 
I installed a rod holder on the back brace for the canvas top and stick the net in that, mine doesn't get in the way.

I put mine there too sometimes.

I like garage's idea. How bout some pics garageman? :D I'm really diggin that, but I don't know how that would jive with my back enclosure curtain. Which reminds me I need some mods to my side windows because right now they won't stay snapped without the back curtain in. I need straps sewn in. Oh well another day and another thread maybe. Sorry for the sidetrack ;D
 
that dam net always gets in my way too :-/ I put mine in an empty rod holder if I got one if not we walk all over it >:(
 
I stick the net up the @ss of the first person to disobey captains orders....that keeps it out of the way for a while. ;D Or another thing to guarantee it stays out of the way it to simply drop it overboard or leave it at the dock. ;D I guarantee the above to be effective unobtrusive net storage techniques. ;D
 
The net usually gets stuck on the port side (to be out of my way) near the seat of the passenger. ;D
Another good place is along the windshield sides (someone has to be the point man). ::)
 
You know I got to thinking about spearfishermen and was planning on making some kind of joke to Hammer on where he stores his net while diving.

I thought about - what if spearfishermen decided to go catch and release. The speargun could hurl a big net at the fish, then a couple of quick pix with the underwater camera and off to the next fish. Kinda seems crazy doesn't it?
 
I know what you are talking about and i might just do that!!

I am riggingm a new to me boat and have not done a season yet, so I will see how thinghs work but this sounds great :-*
 
I gaff all striper I'm planning to keep, but not in the body - in the bottom lip. The main reason I don't gaff in the body is because I don't like getting the boat bloody b/c that means using the washdown more and when its cold I do NOT like using the washdown!

I do gaff a realeased fish.  For those I grab them by the lower lip and gill plate, remove the hook and send them on their way.
My wife caught this 30lber (her first) 2 winters ago on our anniversary trip at Oregon Inlet NC:
