I recently bought an Ego Kryptek net after using my friends Ego Slider. It worked great for pike and bass and pickerel. I recently caught a 19" pickerel that came off the lure in the net. it was also netted head first. It slipped through the net and onto the boat. Upon further inspection, the net had ripped. was this from the pickerel's teeth?

They tear easily.  You gotta be gentle with rubber and silicone netting material.  I suppose it's possible the pick did it.  More likely it got caught on a cleat or something and tore.

Could be, never noticed the tear until it slipped out

Small zip ties work for a temporary repair.
