9507.90.60.00 - Fish landing nets, butterfly nets and similar nets

This HTS category, 9507.90.60.00, specifically covers fish landing nets, butterfly nets, and other nets of a similar nature. These items are designed for the capture or retrieval of fish or insects, typically featuring a net attached to a frame or handle. Examples include fishing landing nets used to scoop fish out of the water and butterfly nets used for entomological collection.

This classification is distinct from its siblings. For instance, it does not encompass fishing line put up for retail sale (9507.90.20.00) or fishing casts or leaders (9507.90.40.00), which are components or accessories for line fishing. The "Other, including parts and accessories" sibling category (9507.90.80.00) is broader and would include general parts for fishing tackle not specifically enumerated elsewhere or other accessories not fitting into the net categories.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on identifying nets that are primarily intended for the purposes described, distinguishing them from other netting materials or more specialized fishing equipment. The key classification criteria include the net's construction, its intended use in capturing or retrieving aquatic life or insects, and its overall form factor as a net attached to a handle or frame.
