It's the most effective net for hunting in grass, where you have the highest chances to find grasshoppers, butterflies etc (don't think I've really caught butterflies any other way, maybe with a jar, but that required much patience). You can hunt pretty fast, with great sweeps, and you can be specific, as opposed to using a beating screen where everything just falls on and half of it escapes.

Though, it's also the most delicate net, and it can get damaged if you're not careful. You have to have other nets and screens with you for bushes, branches and water. You can carry other equipment in it when not hunting, though, up to a certain weight. :P
