Crabtree Style Net

Earlier this year I managed to purchase a small 11" wide 1960's cane landing net off eBay for £15. Well this week I finally managed to take it to bits and varnish the cane rim and polish up the connector. I have had the 4' handle lying around in my shed for years, I new it would come in handy one day, so this was varnished and polished up to suit. The net I also had rolled up in a draw for such an occasion.

I just need to a picture with a perch in it, hopefully by the end of next week this will have been achieved.
