Lovely net. Well done, Patpuff. Looking forward seeing it christened soon - with a big pike, possibly. Tight lines.

Lovely looking net, Sir. Perhaps this mesh might suit?

Hi you have done a brilliant job of your landing net, I was wondering if you could give me a little advice concerning where to get hold of the standard threaded ferule that takes the spreader block I need one with a 1/2 bore at one end and a standard 3/8" thread at the other to take the spreader block.
Very best regards
