This net features leopard wood and sycamore. The leopard wood is also called snake wood because of its strong scale-like grain pattern. The quarter-sawn sycamore is sometimes referred to as American lacewood. I tried to combined the pattern of the woods with their contrasting colors for this net. The leopard wood 9 inch handle is capped with an end piece of caribou antler. The hoop is sycamore and leopard wood. The net is about 22 inches long.
A little story about the hoop, for 20 years GB carried the paper pattern of an old broken landing net he had seen while fishing in the Adirondacks. During a conversation, he told me the story of this broken trout net and the pattern. This fly fishing net is the result of translating that paper pattern into wood. The hoop is elongated was about 13 x 9 inches. This net features a soft nylon catch and release bag. It is finished with multiple coats of epoxy. All nets are signed and numbered.
