Re: Anothe net off to a forum member .
Thank you for the nice words gentlemen .
Retirement has its bonuses, being able to mess about in the workshop when the weather is not the best is a welcome pastime that does keep me busy , in fact I think quite a few forum members here have similar interests.

Re: Anothe net off to a forum member .
To be honest David, I have almost of lost track, I do keep records ( sort of ) of who has what, I also know that a couple or three have been moved on to new owners. I am just happy that they get used for what they are intended for , although I do know of a couple at least that now grace the corners of tackle rooms or studies which is fine as wellBanksy wrote: ↑Wed Feb 15, 2023 4:10 pmQuite a few forum members have your lovely nets and poles as well, David!Old Man River wrote: ↑Wed Feb 15, 2023 1:41 pm Thank you for the nice words gentlemen .

Looks great! I love the net I got from you David …….. probably the reason I use it less than I should!
