Will this work on women? Has anyone tried?

Someone tried to catch me with this net. But then, he said I was too large and might be tough, and threw me back. I was so insulted, that I destroyed the deck off the Salem Willows. Watch what you say to women that you catch in this net ;)

Is this good for catching tropical fish (tangs, puffers, etc)? we are looking to take a net to the fl keys to expand our saltwater tank.

You can use it to catch tropical fish while scuba diving, but you have to modify the net. Cut all the brails free and remove the brails and hand line. Tie a foam net float at the top of the net so the center of the net floats. To use it, observe the fish you want to catch, carefully drape the net over the coral so as to create a barrier to the targets escape route, gently herd your quarry into the net and with a small hand net scoop it out and put it in a container and slowly return it (decompress the fish) to the surface. This is how I used to catch tropical fish in the Keys in the late 70's/early 80's.

The Betts model 25-4 I purchased is a MONO cast net, not a nylon net. Purchased specifically to catch mud minnows and small pinfish in small pockets at shoreline without having their dorsal fins catch in the netting when removing them. It also is easier to shake debris and water from the mono. Nylon thread nets have to be cleaned of weeds often. Check out the BETTSTACKLE.COM website.
