Even if you plan to let the fish go, it's better to net it. The shorter the fight, the more likely it is that the fish can be set free. Some modern nets are made with the fish's health and safety in mind. Frabill made a net that makes it easier to catch and release fish. The net's bag was made to keep the fish safe.
Also, since you can land a fish faster with a net, you can get your bait back to the fish that are biting faster when the bite is good. This increases your chances of getting bit. Hot bites don't usually last very long, so we want to make the most of them when we can. By netting them, we can do this.
Last, nets keep anglers' hands from getting hurt by sharp hooks. When using crankbaits, landing a fish by hand can cause a hook to get stuck in a hand. Getting a hook in the hand isn't fun and can make a fishing trip ended early. With nets, hooks are much less likely to get into hands.
