The most beautiful object,
July 11, 2012
By: UncD
from North Yorkshire
"What a well made and beautiful landing net. It took a lot of thought to spend as much but it was love at first. The lightness is most impressive. This net will certainly be handed down."

Best Gift,

By: Mac99
"I recieved this at Christmas and i could not wait to try it out. Well it works great, the hooks do not get caught up in the netting and the material is soft for releaseing fish unharmed."

nice but expensive,
February 19, 2012
By: tookie
from Downingtown Pa
"After losing a nice rainbow and my fly because I did not have a net I had
to stop at the local Orvis store. I purchase a mid size Brodin net. The net looks nice, feels good in your hand and has a nice deep net. I also purchased the magnetic net holder. Everything looks good and functions greet, wish the price was a little lower.

Truly Premium,
December 5, 2011
By: Anonymous
from Bournemouth, Dorset.
"I bought this net for my son and am delighted with the quality and feel of the product. I hope that he gets lots of use out of it!
One thing that I would not do again is to have it personalised. The lettering is a bit of a non event, not at all what I had expected form Orvis

excellent net,
December 5, 2011
By: coach32252
from Lafayette,la.
"I picked up this net during a stay at Blackberry Farm. If you have ever fished their private waters then you know you need a good net. I have had this net for almost 10 years and it is still as beautiful and functional as the day I got it"

Perfect Net!,

"Everything about this particular net is perfect! The only reason for four stars instead of five is the condition of the gift box I received."

net for all trout,
August 6, 2011
By: buggerchucker
from Pawlet VT
"Just picked this net up from the boys in Manchester this spring and have since landed everything from twentysome odd inch frankenrainbows to delicate little six inch brookies, all delicately, low hook tangling, and so far has taken my abuse. Awesome all around trout net."

"I bought this net a few years ago and have used it for a couple seasons now. The wood is beautiful, especially if you get the personalization, but the net quality is low. I had the stitching rip apart when caught on brush (not the pocket of the net, just the thread holding the net to the frame) and had to replace it with something stronger. It's beautiful, but if you fish often and through thick stuff, you're going to get it beaten..."

"You would think that net is a net. Not so. There are certain features a net needs to have if it is to be a useful tool when trying to land a trophy (and unhappy) trout/bass/crappie, etc. Strength and durablility are obvious, but balance is equally important. And similar to a golf club, you have to like what you are looking at. Orvis Brodin have all of these features. I have used these nets for quite some time and like them so well, I have two of them..."
