Back home in the shop and on the river. Yes, there was one that got away. But what a story.

Finding a USA company to make these small nylon catch release net bags was a definite challenge. Fortunately I have found a company that offered a soft nylon net bag in a variety of sizes and colors.
To have the best fit in your landing net frame the net bag should be under slight tension when they are attached. I strongly advise obtaining the bag before you build the frame. You can shrink the net bag by briefly immersing in hot water but the effect is variable. They are made in the USA and each net bag is hand-sewn so there is a degree of variation.
Please note: because of their small circumference there is more variation in these small bags during manufacturing. Fitting a net bag is an art, a circular frame needs a bigger bag than a tear dot shape with the same circumference. Also we all have preferences as to how the net bag should look. Generally the smaller the net bag the more difficult it is to get a perfect fit. Let me know how I can be of help.
I supply a length of the same nylon cord I use for stringing my nets, with all net bag purchases.
