Brodin Landing Net - 20"
Here is a small stream net that's perfectly made for landing my Leetle Fellers. It's 20 inches in total length with a hoop that's 14 inches by 9 inches at the widest point. A rich mahogany hue makes it a beautifully crafted work of functional art. To find a Brodin net, that is unused in this condition, is getting more difficult by the year. These teardrop models, with a shallow net depth, are my favorite from the Brodin Company. They do complement my vintage rods and reels with a nice, classy touch.
Brodin Nets were in business for 45 years making premium trout nets for fly fisherman around the globe. The company was originally founded in Missoula, Montana in 1978, and the owners retired in August of 2023.
Beautiful net, an heirloom for sure. Would also look great hanging from a fireplace mantle or in a "fish" room. I should have snagged one when they were on close out. Love that wood. I am sure that net has met many a fish. Congrats.
ReplyDeleteI thought so too, John. I haven't seen any that compare to Brodin's style of trout nets, to date. They are my favorite brand, I must say.
