Fish Net Stalkings
August 25th, 2009
Or is it fish net stockings? I can see how they came up with the term.
My apologies for that mildly awkward photo and unladylike pose. Admittedly there was some chaos in the moment of that grip & grin. Heavy wind, rocks all around, and we were coming up fast on the takeout. But we wanted to document this gamechanger fish. It was a tough afternoon float on the Madison and we needed this morale boost.
But back to nets. Let’s dish. What floats your boat when it comes to fish nets:
- Giant nets with extendable handles?
- Traditional wooden net?
- Certain brand you prefer?
- You don’t fish with a net but you do wear ladies hosiery under your waders?

Last year I bought a Brodin Frying Pan Ghost Float Tube Net that I love. It’s small enough to carry while wading, yet big enough to use while on the Scadden drifter. And hooks never snag in the rubber netting. It was a little pricey, but hopefully it will last a while.
No, I’ve never worn hose under my waders, but on some of those icy cold mornings, I would probably try anything to stay warmer. Brad(Quote)

Chick – - Please accept my public apology for my earlier comment. That was the lascivious little voice in my head brought out by self-medicated shots of Maker’s Mark. You do have a lovely pair of fish sticks by the way. Best fishes, Rodster Rodster(Quote)
