Maritec or the Wilson one gets my vote.
Jarvis walker also have released a decent net now.
I find the berkley silicone mesh nets start to get a bit cumbersome and heavy after using a bit.

Re: "Landing" net - yak fishing
Went ahead with the Shimano Silicone (small) - hope to christen it in a couple of weeks!
It's 38cm across but looks deep enough. Hope it floats haha

Re: "Landing" net - yak fishing
I also use the Berkeley silicone net from the yak, it’s big, but I have a rack I store it in behind my seat so it’s not in the way. I like it because as Mazman said, hooks don’t stick in it, and squid ink/slime rinses out of it easily.
If you’re worried about your net sinking, you can slip some pool noodle over the handle to make it float
