Made from American Spalted Curly Maple Burl. We handcraft our nets with a teardrop shape so that the end of the hoop is large enough to pull in any catch you have, while the holes of the fish safe rubber net bags are kept small to avoid losing a small catch.
Our wood fly fishing nets are made in the USA! We believe that the best fly fishing nets are made with traditional craftsmanship and local materials and Wayward is proud to produce handcrafted wood landing nets right here in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
Your net will have characteristics of curly, spalting, and burl. Grain patterns, colors, and textures will vary from one net to another. These variations are a hallmark of handcrafted wooden products and make each piece truly unique. When usable knots are identified, we stabilize them with epoxy to enhance and highlight the natural beauty of the wood grain. As a result, your Wayward Fly Fishing Net may feature these distinctive characteristics, adding to its individuality. While we ensure the highest quality craftsmanship, the appearance of each net may differ slightly from the images shown.
Spalting is a natural coloration process caused by fungi that create striking patterns in the wood. Spalting can manifest in several forms, including:
Zone Lines – Thin, dark lines that form intricate, web-like patterns as different fungal colonies interact.
Pigment Stains – Areas of rich color, such as greys, blues, greens, or reds, caused by specific fungal species.
White Rot – A softening effect that creates a lighter, more porous texture, often giving the wood a distinct contrast.
Due to the increase of theft and loss, all wooden nets are shipped via UPS with signature required. Be prepared to sign for your order upon delivery if you are not home to receive your delivery, UPS will leave a notice. You may communicate with UPS if you want them to leave the package the next day or pick it up from the local store. I cannot be held liable for packages left unattended. Thank you for your understanding.
