    Default My little Sunday project

    I got bored on Sunday and decided to see what I could make with a stick and some bank line I had laying around. Three hours later I had a nice little hand held fishing net to use the next time I take out the fly rod. It is not perfect but i like it and think it will serve its purpose. This was my first time doing any net tying and I found that it is hard to keep the diamonds equal size when working with a loop.

    I know for sure he's not from El Paso. I'm not really sure what that green stuff on the ground was.

    Very cool! I'm contemplating making a net as a summer project. What size bankline did you use? Or did you unravel some? Also, did you finish the bottom of the net just by knotting off your ends?
