Landing net for stream fishing

I'm looking for a nice net with a decent hoop size and depth that would be good for wading. I do not like the folding kind, something with a telscopic handle would be good for shore fishing. They look like there are hard to find, maybe even a pond net. any suggestions ?

    I have one of those folding nets with a telescopic handle. Not sure why you don't like them, but it's suited me fine for all the fish I've caught.

    Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything, but you still can't help but smile when you see one tumble down the stairs.

    Surprised FishUSA don't carry these or would have suggested them.
