Would it be possible please for someone to supply measurements for a barder or crabtree net please as I have acquired a brass v shaped spreader block, a template would be even better. Kind regards barbelfishet

Re: crabtree net
Hi BarbelFisher,
Can I ask where the spreader block came from? Been after one for a while now with no joy so it looks like a DIY job (hurray!)
Its not the one recently on ebay by chance?? I would be interested to see how this turns out as this is my next project along with a walker style carp net.

I have laid aside business, and gone a'fishing.
