My only part other than the arms was to make my own handle so now it was down to me to complete the net , something I was keen to do .
I wanted to try something different this time round as far as the flame pattern that I tend to use on my own landing net handles and as it was for me , I could play about with ideas at my own leisure .
The tip end of the arms were whipped in black as I requested so it was only right to continue this theme on the handle . As well as this thought in mind , due to the style of pattern flaming I wanted to use a similar coloured silk that was warm looking and used this to tip the black node whippings in this chestnut silk .
Finally , after straightening the bamboo , flame patterning and applying the silk it was ready for varnishing and after several coats the handle was finally complete . It would be easy to just stand this in the tackle room and not use it for fear of damage but this will be joining me on the bank .
