The two Cane handles for my traditional net arrived today, one two handed 6 footer and a 5 footer which is the one I will be using the most.
I cant wait to get her on the bank and try her out. Fish permitting of course

At Last My Traditional Net Is Ready.
This royal throne of kings, this sceptered isle,
This happy breed of men, this little world,
This precious stone set in the silver sea,
This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England.

Re: At Last My Traditional Net Is Ready.
That looks super, I really like that.
Funny, I have a handle very similar to yours, a five foot one, and I just now need to get a lovely net head like that.
All the best.

Looks good, I hope the next fish you catch fills it!
It's similar to the one I use, but the handle(s) you have are straight.

Re: At Last My Traditional Net Is Ready.
John, if you don’t mind telling me, who supplied the landing net, the handles and what was the cost? I have the net head and have tried making a six foot handle using bamboo, a 3/8 BSF nut stuck to a ferrule and a lot of work…
