Landing Net for Fly Fishing
While a landing net is a first-class nuisance on a brushy trout stream, continually getting fouled in the brush, the angler who wishes to land the rather infrequent "whale "— the loss of which always overshadows the basketing of numerous small fry — will religiously carry one. It is by far the best plan always to have a net along no matter how much of a bother it is. When fishing from a canoe the net should have a handle at least four feet in length. For wading, a short-handled net with elastic cord to sling over the shoulder is the best sort. The take-down nets with folding metal frame are the least troublesome and very satisfactory. A net frame and handle of this sort for use when wading will cost $1.00. The net itself must be purchased separately and costs about 40 cents. On a long trip one should have at least two landing nets as they are easily lost.
