Premium Quality Landing Nets, Handcrafted by Lloyd D Hautajarvi
Some of the different woods available in the Brook Trout model
Brook Trout Nets
The Brook Trout model is perfect for our local Midwest streams where the average fish is on the smaller side but the possibility of a 20" fish is a distinct reality. It measures 18" in total length with a hoop 9" wide by 11" long. I have landed browns up to 22" long with one and it worked just fine, although I consider 18-20" to be the practical limit for this model. The Brook Trout is a nice compact net that can handle a fair sized fish while still being small enough to stay out of the way when doing some brush busting. The Brook Trout is available in all of the wood choices.
